3/4 lb chicken gizzards
1/4 lb ground sausage
2 lb. ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 bunch green onions and tops, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
Cajun seasoning to taste (or salt, pepper, sage, and parsley)
2 cups rice
4 cups water (use the water you cooked the gizzards in)
Boil the gizzards 20 minutes. Chop fine or grind. Sauté all ingredients except rice and water in a large frying pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Add the rice and water. Cook at a simmer, covered, about 25 minutes more or until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
