A flavorful and easy-to-make Cajun-inspired dish combining seasoned beef and rice.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef.
Break the beef into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Add the diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet and cook until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Stir in the garlic powder, dried celery flakes, and Cajun seasoning.
Adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning to your preferred spice level.
Add the rice and water to the skillet, stirring to combine.
Ensure the rice is evenly distributed in the skillet for uniform cooking.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
Check occasionally to ensure the rice doesn't stick to the bottom of the skillet.
Fluff the rice with a fork and serve hot.
Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions for a fresh touch.
