Equipment

  • large heavy based pot

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 2 medium onions chopped (or 1 large)
  • 1 unit yellow capsicum cut into 1.5cm / 1" squares
  • 1 unit red capsicum cut into 1.5cm / 1" squares
  • 400 g kransky or other smoked sausages sliced 0.5cm thick / ¼" thick
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¾ teaspoon smoked paprika sub normal paprika
  • 1 ½ cup long grain white rice uncooked
  • 2 ½ cups chicken stock/broth low sodium (or veg stock)
  • 2 cups frozen peas thawed
  • 2 tablespoon parsley chopped (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat 2 tablespoon oil in a large heavy based pot over medium high heat. Add sausages and cook until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add garlic and onion, cook for 2 minutes. Add capsicum and cook for 2 minutes until onion is translucent.
  • Add rice, chicken stock, paprika, salt, pepper and the sausage. Stir, bring to boil, then reduce heat to low so it's simmering very gently.
  • Cover with lid, cook 20 minutes.
  • Remove pot from stove. Working quickly, remove lid, add peas, then quickly put the lid back on. Rest 10 minutes - the residual heat will cook the peas.
  • Add parsley. Use a fork to fluff the rice. Serve immediately!

Notes

Any smoked sausage will work here. Raw sausages can also be used.
