Instructions

  1. Brown the turkey sausage on all sides over medium-high heat in a 3.5+ qt. Dutch oven. (I used my 5 qt.)
  2. When browned, remove from the pan, slice into rounds and set aside.
  3. Add the olive oil to the same Dutch oven.
  4. When the olive oil is hot, add the onions, bell pepper and garlic.
  5. Move the vegetables around the pan constantly, softening them, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. When the vegetables are soft, add the chicken stock and Worcestershire. Season with salt and cayenne.
  7. Bring the stock to a boil, and add back in the sliced turkey sausage. Cook for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors a chance to meld.
  8. Measure in the rice, then lower the head.
  9. Cover the Dutch oven and cook for 40-45 minutes.
  10. When the time is up, the chicken stock should have been completely absorbed and the rice will be plump.
  11. Enjoy warm!

Notes

  • This is a GREAT recipe to make in advance for parties and to reheat in the microwave. (It’s also easy to put on the same day and let it hang out on the stovetop!) If you make it in advance and want to reheat it, be sure that your rice isn’t overcooked so that it does not turn to mush.
