How to make cajun dirty rice:

Boil the gizzards and livers in water or stock to which have been added Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Boil about 30 minutes; remove gizzards and livers (keeping liquid); grind and set aside. In a Dutch oven or heavy skillet, saute the onions, celery and peppers in the drippings, oil or margarine until browned. Brown ground meat and sausage in separate skillet; pour off excess grease. Put vegetables, gizzards, livers, meat and sausage in Dutch oven. Saute about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup of reserved liquid and simmer about 1 hour. Add liquid if needed. Cook rice and mix with meat mixture. Bake in a covered dish at 325° for 30 minutes. Serves 4 or 5. Freezes well if you wish to double the recipe.
