This is a hearty, filling meal with only one pot to clean up. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 cup diced onion |
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper |
1/2 cup diced celery |
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped garlic |
1 cup converted long-grain white rice |
4 ounces smoked sausage, cut into slices |
4 ounces cooked ham, cut into bite-size pieces |
2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chile peppers |
1 cup chicken broth |
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 bay leaf |
2 (15 ounce) cans ranch-style beans, undrained |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion, green pepper and celery, until onions are soft and translucent. Stir in garlic, and cook another minute. Add rice, sausage and ham. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, to coat the rice with oil, stirring frequently. Pour in tomatoes with green chiles and chicken broth. Season with thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Cover, and simmer 20 to 25 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed. Stir in the beans, mix well and heat through. |
