Ratings and Reviews of Popeyes Cajun (Dirty) Rice

Made this rice last night for the 1st time. It's great!! Much better than the Popeye's version because it's made from fresh ingredients and not processed ones.

I grew up in south LA, and first tasted Popeyes at age 6 in the mid 70's. This was the best "dirty rice" I've ever had. The recipe is fantastic, really easy, and saves you about $20 for the amount this makes. The texture is better than Popeyes (which is usually mushy), and the flavor is really close. Tempted to adjust the cayenne higher and thyme lower or try different rice (I used basmati), but it was great as is. Thanks, Todd!

Minimum effort for maximum taste. The family loved it. Todd you magnificent hacker, you did it again!
