Ingredients

2 cups long grain white rice
5 cups chicken stock, divided
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound smoked pork sausage, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 large onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Make the rice, in a medium saucepan combine the rice and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until all the stock is absorbed into the rice, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile heat oil in a heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium-high heat. Brown the sausage. Once browned, add the garlic, onion, celery, and green bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup chicken stock and cayenne. Cook until the stock has reduced a little. Add the cooked rice and parsley and stir thoroughly. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if necessary.

"Can We Eat This Again For Dinner Tomorrow Night?"
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I Made This Dish For My Family Last Night, And I Was Very Surprised That My Daughters (Who Are 10 & 11) Ate It! My Daughters... Are Very Picky Eaters. Both Of Them, Including My Husband And Myself Helped Ourselves To Seconds! My Daughters Asked If They Could Have This Dish For Dinner Again Tonight! I Definately Will Be Adding This Recipe To My Recipe Book. The Only Thing I Did Different Was That I Used Smoked Beef Sausage Instead Of Pork.Read more

Very tasty!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I never knew what to do with kielbasa sausage so tried this after seeing the Neely's prepare it. I used converted rice (cause... my regular rice always comes out mushy) and eliminated the cayenne since we don't care for the heat. Instead of chopping the vegetables into small pieces, I cut them medium sized. I was hesitant about the parsley (because it has such a strong flavor) but it was just fine. Since I used this as the main dish (served with cabbage), I will cut down on the rice next time so the sausage is more abundant (it's just my husband and me). Delicious! I will definitely make it again. Read more

Quick and FABULOUS!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made the rice w/water. (Didnt have long grain rice...just used regular old white rice). When done, added the 4 cups of... broth, stirred the rice up to get it loose in the broth and then brought to a boil. Reduced to lo heat and covered w/lid and just let it be. Browned beef smoked sausage (not a big pork fan). Added only onions and garlic, salt and pepper and let that do it's thing for like 5 min. (I omitted the bell pepper and celery cuz I just didn't have any). Scrapped the bottom of the pan to get all those good flavors back up into the meal. Used an italian spice mix of rosemary, thyme, basil, parsley and garlic flakes...oh yaaaa...and just mixed it all in with the sausage. OMG the aroma was kickin'!!! Added the last cup of chicken broth and the 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper...stirred it up real good and you could virtually see the flavor. Just let that simmer for a bit...it actually started to boil so I turned the heat down to med/lo (4 on my stove top dial) and just let it simmer for about 5 minutes to get all those spices set in. I threw the rice in and stirred it all up and took it off the heat to an unused burner on the stove...covered it all up and just let it set for about 10 minutes. Did the dishes real quick, put away my spices and what not...and by the time I was done...OMG...had me a sample taste before serving it...and yep yep...its money babyyyY!!!Read more
