Cajun Sausage and Rice Skillet (One-Pan Dinner in 30 minutes!) (Page 2 ) | April 30, 2025

Cook the Sausage
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced sausage and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and crispy on the edges. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Veggies
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 3 minutes, until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Toast the Rice
Add the rinsed rice to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables and oil. Toast the rice for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to smell fragrant.
Cook the Rice
Pour in the chicken broth and sprinkle in the Cajun seasoning, stirring to combine. Bring to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Combine and Finish
Once the rice is cooked, add the sausage back to the skillet. Stir everything together to combine, and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve
Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley, green onions, and a drizzle of hot sauce if desired.
