Corn bread makes a nice accompaniment to round out this one-dish, Cajun-inspired meal. Andouille sausage is a bit spicy. If you prefer a milder flavor, substitute regular chicken, turkey, or pork sausage. Ingredients:
1 (3 1/2-ounce) bag boil-in-bag long-grain rice |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
1/2 cup prechopped onion |
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic |
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning |
6 ounces chicken andouille sausage, sliced (such as amy's) |
1 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1 (15-ounce) can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained |
1 (14.5-ounce) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained |
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as tabasco) |
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions |
Directions:
1. Place rice in an 8-inch square baking dish; cover with water. Microwave at HIGH 6 minutes; drain.
2. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and Cajun seasoning to pan, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in sausage, and cook for 1 minute. Add the rice, chicken broth, black-eyed peas, and tomatoes to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 4 minutes or until rice is tender. Stir in hot pepper sauce. Ladle about 1 1/4 cups mixture into each of 4 bowls, and sprinkle each serving with 2 tablespoons green onions.
