Dirty Rice
You can never have too many Creole recipes, so give Dirty Rice a try. This gluten free and dairy free recipe serves 6. This side dish has 274 calories, 22g of protein, and 3g of fat per serving. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes. If you have water, cajun seasoning, garlic powder, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it.
Recommended wine: Albarino, Rose Wine, Sauvignon Blanc
Albarino, rosé Wine, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Cajun. These low-tannin, lower alcohol wines will complement the heat in spicy cajun dishes, instead of making your mouth burn more. The Neboan Albarino with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
Neboa Albarino
The cooler, higher elevation Condado do Tea subregion gives rise to a fresh, precise expression of Albariño in general and this particular site lends an intense mineral streak through the wine. A floral, blossomy nose with peach and apricot aromas which carry through on the palate with taut structure, complex fresh fruit, understated mid-palate weight, all on a strong backbone of mineral acidity.
