Equipment

  • Wide Skillet or Pan with Lid:
  • Slotted Spoon
  • Cutting Board and Knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cooking Spoon or Spatula
  • Pot with Lid
  • Fork

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground pork sausage
  • 1 and 1/2 cups finely diced celery
  • 1 small red bell pepper finely diced
  • 1/3 cup Butter
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 Onion Diced
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 and 1/2 tsps Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Rubbed Sage
  • 1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 and 1/2 cups uncooked extra-long-grain rice
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  • Cook and crumble the sausage in a wide skillet or pan until it's nicely browned. Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage from the pan and set it aside.
  • Add celery, bell pepper, onion, and butter to the pan. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes.
  • Add broth, garlic, salt, sage, thyme, pepper, cayenne, and the cooked sausage. Bring it to a boil. Once boiling, add rice and parsley.
  • Return to a gentle boil, then cover. Reduce the heat to low or medium-low and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the rice is tender.
  • Stir the rice once or twice with a fork to make sure nothing is sticking to the bottom, but don't overwork it. Avoid stirring or opening the lid during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
  • Remove from heat and let it rest, covered, for 10 minutes.

Notes

Notes:
  • My favorite sausages for this recipe are Jimmy Dean's or Swaggerty's breakfast sausage.
  • You can use Jimmy Dean Sage Sausage and skip the 1/2 teaspoon of rubbed sage.
  • Unfortunately, I don't have instructions for making this recipe with instant rice or brown rice.
  • If needed, substitute 1/4 teaspoon ground sage for the 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage.
  • Substitute 1 tablespoon of dried parsley for the 1/2 cup of chopped fresh parsley if necessary.
