Ingredients

• 1 pound soy-free sausage
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, chopped onion
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 medium, chopped bell pepper
• 1.5 cups long-grain white rice
• 3 cups chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the soy-free sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Break it into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks. Remove sausage from skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the rice and cook it for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly toasted.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken broth, then add thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Return the sausage to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 7

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Fluff the rice mixture with a fork and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
