Skillet Sausage with Peppers & Onions
September often means a change in schedules for many families. Back-to-school season is in full swing; we’re starting to see fall-inspired flavors everywhere and thinking about food that will keep us satisfied in the cooler weather. Fall officially kicks off in September and so does the celebration of a mainstay for so many families with National Rice Month, which celebrates the rice harvest and honors the contribution of the U.S. rice industry to America’s economy.
Rice is an easy family staple that makes meal planning and prep easy for everyone, especially with products on hand like Minute® Ready to Serve Rice since it’s ready in just 60 seconds. Plus, rice is versatile. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and desserts can be made using this go-to ingredient.
Y’all already know how important cooking and eating at home with my family is to me! But even as much as I love it, there are days when I have 15 minutes to throw dinner together! The good news is, I have several recipes that our family loves that I can have ready in that amount of time. One of my favorite tricks in preparing a meal that comes together in less than 15 minutes is using smoked sausage or leftover cooked meat as a meal starter. Another big help is Minute® Ready to Serve Rice! I always have it in my pantry.
This is one of our favorite super fast, 15 minute recipes! I hope you love it as much as we do!
Smoked Sausage with Peppers & Onions
Ingredients
1 Tbsp oil
1 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 lb smoked sausage
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 {14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cube chicken bouillon
1 tsp Cajun seasoning
4 cups cooked white rice (We love Minute® Ready to Serve Rice)
Directions
Add butter and oil to a large skillet over medium high heat. Add sausage, peppers and onions and cook until starting to brown, stirring as little as possible to get some good color on it, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add the garlic, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes with juice, bouillon cube, and Cajun seasoning. Raise heat and bring to a slight boil, then reduce to low for a couple of minutes. Taste to adjust seasoning. Serve over rice and enjoy!
