Directions

In a large pot or Dutch oven heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook sausage until it is no longer pink. Using a slotted spoon, remove cooked sausage and set aside.

Add sausage, rice and broth back into the pot and bring broth to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes or until all of the liquid has been absorbed. Stir well.

Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
