Ingredients

  • 5 Sausage links sliced
  • 2 Bell peppers sliced
  • ½ cup Leek sliced
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced

  • Add in the broth sauce, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well.
  • Turn the heat up slightly and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Add in the rice.
  • Cover and cook for 20 minutes at medium heat until the rice is cooked through.

Notes

  • Want to make the sausage and peppers skillet more cajun? Top it with a pinch of cayenne pepper while it sits.
  • Brown rice and basmati rice both work for this recipe.
  • Though the sausage recipe calls for leek, sweet onion works well in its place.
  • Depending on the size of your cast iron skillet, you may need to let the mixture simmer a bit longer so that the extra liquid is absorbed.
