Popeye's is a Louisiana-based fried chicken restaurant chain. This recipe is from America's Most Wanted Recipes - Copycat Versions of Everyone's Best-Loved Food. For a serious bayou experience, add more Cajun seasoning and red pepper flakes. Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground beef |
1/2 cup finely diced green bell pepper |
1/3 cup diced green onion |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon dried celery flakes |
1 teaspoon cajun seasoning |
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
4 cups cooked long-grain rice |
1/4-1/3 cup water |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. In a skillet, combine the ground beef and green pepper and cook over medium-high heat until the beef loses its pink color and the pepper is soft.
2. Pour off the excess fat and reduce the heat to medium-low.
3. Add the remaining ingredients, then stir and cook together until the ground beef is completely cooked and the liquid is absorbed, 25 to 35 minutes.
