"A healthier twist on a Cajun classic, the addition of shrimp turns this "dirty brown rice" into a fabulous main dish. I'd like to think of this as a Cajun shrimp fried rice. With Mardi Gras ending tomorrow, I thought this would be the perfect timing to share this recipe from the archives because I LOVE this dish!..."
