Spanish Rice with Sausage

Ingredients

• 1 cup long-grain white rice
• 8 oz smoked sausage
• 1 medium onion
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 1 medium green chili pepper
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• ½ tsp salt

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add 8 oz sliced smoked sausage and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.

2. 2

   Add 1 diced onion, 1 diced red bell pepper, and 1 minced green chili to the same skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Stir in 1 cup rice and 0.5 tsp salt. Toast for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until rice smells nutty.

4. 4

   Pour in 2 cups chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes.

5. 5

   Return sausage to the skillet, fluff rice with a fork, and serve hot with crusty bread on the side.

6. 6

   Optional: stir in 1 tsp smoked paprika or cumin with the rice for extra depth.
