Ingredients
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup uncooked long-grain rice, such as Carolina Gold, rinsed to remove the starch
1 stalk celery, cut into large pieces
1 clove garlic
1 large onion, cut into large pieces
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into large pieces
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more if needed
1 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil
1 pound blue crab claw meat, picked through to remove any shells
2 generous pinches Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
1 large tomato, diced (1 cup)
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Miss Brown's House Seasoning:
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the rice. Cover, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat, then fluff with a fork.
- Meanwhile, pulse the celery, garlic, onion and bell pepper in a food processor until minced. Heat the butter and oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the butter melts. Add the minced vegetables. Saute until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the crab meat and House Seasoning. Cook until the crab meat has browned, about 5 minutes. Add additional butter, if the vegetables become too dry and begin to brown too quickly. Stir in the rice and tomato. Cover and simmer until the rice is fluffy, 5 more minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with parsley before serving.
Miss Brown's House Seasoning:
- Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
