Baked Potatoes Stuffed with Cajun Rice
Baked Potatoes Stuffed with Cajun Rice is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a perfect combination of baked potatoes and spicy Cajun rice, making it a flavorful and satisfying meal.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 large baking potato
- 1/2 cup cooked Cajun rice
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F. Wash the potato and pierce it several times with a fork. Place the potato on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the potato is tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potato is baking, prepare the Cajun rice according to the package instructions. Once the rice is cooked, mix in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions.
Once the potato is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Cut the potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a thin layer of potato inside the skin. Mash the potato flesh with a fork and mix it with the Cajun rice mixture.
Spoon the potato and rice mixture back into the potato skins. Top each potato with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with additional chopped green onions, if desired.
This dish is a perfect combination of creamy, spicy, and cheesy flavors. The baked potato skin adds a nice crunch to the dish, while the Cajun rice adds a spicy kick. This dish is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or a hearty lunch.
