Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken sausage raw, Italian links
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 shallot minced
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 ¼ cups chicken broth
- 2 cups broccoli florets small
- 3 ½ cups (about 16 oz.) cauliflower rice
- 1 red bell pepper cut into strips
- ¼ cup pesto
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper ground
- 3 tablespoons parsley flat-leaf, minced
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- Parmesan Cheese if desired, grated
Instructions
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray. Squeeze the sausages out of their casings into the skillet. Discard the casings.
- Using a wooden spoon, break up the sausage as it cooks. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Add the olive oil to the skillet, then the shallots and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
- Pour in the chicken broth. As the broth comes to a simmer, scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any cooked sausage bits.
- Stir in the cauliflower rice, broccoli and red pepper. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender when pierced with a fork and the broth is mostly absorbed, about 5 minutes.
- Return the sausage to the mixture, along with the pesto , salt, pepper and parsley.
- Serve with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
