Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped (about 1½ cups)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 whole bell peppers, any colour, chopped
  • 2½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup UNCOOKED long-grain white rice
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 cups shredded turkey (or chicken), cooked
  • 6 oz andouille sausage, chopped and cooked (If you can’t find this kind, just use one of your favourites - spicy is nice!)
  • 2 tbsp sliced green onions, (for garnish - optional)
Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add onion and garlic and sauté 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
  3. Stir in peppers and next 5 seasonings and sauté 1 minute.
  4. Add uncooked rice; sauté 1 minute longer.
  5. Stir in broth and tomatoes; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  6. Add cooked turkey and sausage; cover and cook 5 minutes more to heat through.
  7. Sprinkle with green onions, if desired - we also like a healthy sprinkle of cheddar cheese on top, but we like cheese on everything :)
Notes
To make this dish gluten free, ensure you have gluten free sausage and homemade chicken stock or gluten free bouillon cubes. This freezes and reheats well.
