Cajun Pork Mince Rice Bowls
A quick, smoky pork mince supper with fluffy rice, peppers and fresh lime.
Ingredients
Method
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs mostly clear. Put it in a saucepan with the chicken stock, bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 12 minutes, or until tender. Leave covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
While the rice cooks, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and red pepper and cook for 4–5 minutes until softened.
Add the pork mince and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for 6–8 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Stir in the garlic and Cajun seasoning and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant. Add a splash of water if the pan looks dry.
Fold the cooked rice through the pork mixture and warm for 2 minutes. Season with black pepper and lime juice, then scatter over the spring onions to serve.
Notes
Serve with extra lime wedges or a crisp green salad if you like.
