Cómo preparar Cajun Dirty Rice Red Bean Pies
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained red beans, reserved bean liquid (1/2 cup), undrained diced tomatoes, margarine, salt, cumin, dry mustard, and optional Tabasco sauce.
- Mash and beat the mixture until the beans are mostly smooth but still slightly chunky.
- Stir in the instant potato flakes until well combined. The mixture should be spreadable, not soupy. Add more potato flakes (1 teaspoon at a time) if needed to achieve desired consistency.
- Spray two deep-dish pie pans with cooking spray.
- Divide the bean mixture evenly between the two pie pans.
- Spread the mixture evenly, pressing it against the sides of the pans to form a crust.
- Set aside.
- In a large deep frying pan, cook the bacon, sausage, and ground chicken over medium heat until browned, breaking up the chicken as it cooks. If using turkey bacon, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. If using regular bacon, no additional oil is needed.
- Add the chopped bell peppers, thyme, celery seed, and garlic. Stir and sauté for about 5 minutes until slightly softened.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, creating a roux.
- Gradually whisk in the reserved tomato juice, hot water, chicken bouillon, and bay leaves.
- Stir in the rice, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- While the rice cooks, bake the bean crusts in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
- Remove the bay leaves from the rice mixture.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the milk and flour until smooth.
- Stir the milk-flour mixture into the rice mixture until well combined.
- Spoon the dirty rice mixture into the partially baked bean crusts.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until the filling is heated through and the crust is lightly browned.
- Let the pies rest for 10 minutes before cutting into 8 wedges per pie.
- Serve each slice with shredded cheese, if desired.
