Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Gluten-free sausage
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 Medium onion, chopped
- 1 Red bell pepper, chopped
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 cups Gluten-free chicken broth
- 1.5 cups Long grain white rice
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 0.25 cup Chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Heat a large skillet or pot over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Slice the gluten-free sausages into 1-inch pieces and add them to the pan. Cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausages from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the chopped onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables become soft.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.
Pour in the gluten-free chicken broth and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the long grain white rice, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the pan. Stir to combine.
Return the sausage to the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan and simmer for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, add the frozen peas. Stir gently to incorporate, cover, and continue to cook for 5 more minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
Turn off the heat and let the mixture sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes.
Fluff the rice with a fork, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
