🛠️ Instructions 🛠️
-
Melt the Butter 🧈
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat until it’s fully melted and starting to sizzle. -
Sauté the Vegetables and Sausage 🥓
Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and sliced smoked sausage to the saucepan. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the sausage is slightly browned. -
Combine the Ingredients 🍅
Stir in the rice, chicken broth, Tabasco sauce, and diced tomatoes (with their juices). Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed. Bring the mixture to a boil. -
Simmer Until Tender 🍲
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover the saucepan with a lid and let it simmer for 25 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid. -
Rest Before Serving 🍽️
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together perfectly. After 5 minutes, give it a good stir and serve hot.
