Enjoy a delicious and fuss-free Jambalaya perfect for busy weeknights. Sausage, rice, and veggies come together in one pan for a flavorful and satisfying meal.
2red peppers capsicums, seeded and cut into small chunks
½tspcrushed dried chillies
250glong-grain rice (I used brown rice and needed to cook it longer)
400gjar crushed tomatoes with onion and garlic
425mlhot chicken or vegetable stock
1tspWorcestershire sauce, optional
Salt and pepper
2Tbspchopped fresh flat parsley, optional
Instructions
Pre-heat the grill. Put the sausages onto a baking sheet and grill for about 15-20 minutes, turning once, until brown. Alternatively, pan-fry the sausages in oil, as I did.
Heat the olive oil in a deep frying pan. Add the celery and peppers and fry for 2-3 minutes to soften. Add the crushed chillies and the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, before adding the tomatoes, the hot stock, Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper. Simmer over a medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until nearly all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
When the sausages are cooked, cut them into chunks and stir into the rice. Sprinkle with parsley and serve. Great with pita bread and salad.
