Solo jambalaya

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¼ pounds Spicy sausage (Italian, chorizo or bratwurst)
1 teaspoon Vegetable oil
2 tablespoons Chopped onion
2 tablespoons Diced sweet green pepper
cup Canned tomatoes (undrained) chopped
¼ cup Long-grain rice
1 tablespoon Tomato paste
¼ teaspoon Salt
Pinch each dried thyme and hot pepper flakes

Directions

In microwaveable pie plate, prick sausage all over with fork. Cover with waxed paper; microwave at High for 1½ minutes. Rotate and turn sausage over; microwave at High for 1 minute. (Or brown in skillet over medium-high heat.) Cut into thick slices.

Meanwhile, in saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion and green pepper, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes or until softened but not browned.

Add sausage, tomatoes, rice, tomato paste, salt thyme and hot pepper flakes; bring to boil. Cover and reduce heat; simmer gently for 20 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Let stand for 5 minutes; stir well. Makes 1 serving. Note: If doubling this dish, the sausage will need an extra 2 minutes or so in the microwave.
