- Remove from heat, and rest with the lid on for 10 minutes. Then gently fluff with a fork and rest again for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Sausage: I substitute Polska Kielbasa sausage when cooking for my family, because it's less spicy for my kids.

- Shrimp: Jumbo, uncooked shrimp could be thrown in the same time as the rice and cooked with everything together. Or you could cook the shrimp separately (or thaw frozen cooked shrimp) and add it at the end.

- Gluten-free Adaptations: use gluten-free all-purpose flour.
