"There's no more classic Louisiana dish than this deeply flavored rice like this recipe from Chef Donald Link at Herbsaint in New Orleans. The chicken livers are traditional, and give it an authentic taste you can't really get any other way. Letting everything cook until it browns and sticks to the skillet is very important for flavor...."
