I threw this together one night and my husband raved and raved about it. I hope it gets raves for you, too. :) Ingredients:
2 cups water |
1 cup rice |
1 cup onion, chopped |
1 stalk celery, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 lb smoked sausage, cut into bite-sized pieces |
2 (15 ounce) cans beans, undrained (red or kidney) |
1 bay leaf, crushed |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons dried parsley (or 1/3 cup fresh) |
Directions:
1. For the rice: In a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid, combine water and rice. Bring to a boil with the lid off. Reduce to low heat, cover and set timer for 20 minutes. Leave covered. Do not remove lid until finished.
2. For the red bean mixture: Sauté onions, celery and garlic in oil until softened on medium high heat. Add chopped sausage and cook 5 minutes. Stir in undrained beans, crushed bay leaf and salt. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes. Stir in parsley and cook 5 minutes more. Pour over rice.
