Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup onion diced small
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 12 ounces smoked sausage sliced
- 2 cups broccoli
- 1 cup yellow bell pepper sliced
- 1 cup red bell pepper sliced
- 2 cups rice I used white, Success® brand
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoons black pepper cracked
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup cheddar cheese grated (optional)
Instructions
- Add the onions and cook until softened (about 4 minutes)
- Add the garlic, cook for 30 seconds, then brown the sausage.
- Add the chopped vegetables, reduce heat and cover. Cook for around 5 minutes. If your pan is a little dry, add a little water or chicken broth.
- Add the cooked rice, salt, pepper and any other seasonings you like, and combine thoroughly.
- Take skillet off the heat, add the cheese and stir in. We don't want the skillet on the heat when we add the cheese, in case it burns. The heat from the food will melt it nicely.
- Check your seasoning, and adjust if necessary, then devour.
Notes
- What to do with leftovers
- Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat until it is piping hot!
- Substitutions/Additions
- Vegetables: If you have asparagus, peas, or frozen mixed vegetables, use those.
- Protein: If you don't like smoked sausage, some leftover steak or chicken, or even some shrimp from the freezer work deliciously.
- Rice: White or brown rice can be used, as long as it is fully cooked.
- Seasonings: I use a mix of onion powder and garlic powder, salt and pepper, but to mix it up I use Cajun Seasoning, or add some cayenne pepper.
- Freezing instructions
- This recipe can be frozen after cooking. Allow to cool completely before adding the cheese. Store in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 4 months.
