This Sausage and Rice Skillet is easy to put together and is bursting with amazing Cajun flavors. It’s a one-pan meal that the whole family will love!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Tbsp. cooking oil
- 1 lb. andouille sausage, in 1/4-inch slices
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 ribs of celery, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. Cajun seasoning*
- 1 (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes
- 1 and 1/2 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
- 2 Tbsp. tomato paste
- 2 green onions, chopped
Instructions
- In a very large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Arrange the sausage in a single layer, with as little overlapping as possible.. Let cook untouched until browned underneath, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir in the onion, bell pepper, celery, garlic, salt, and Cajun seasoning. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in the tomatoes, stock, rice, and tomato paste. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to low so that it’s at a gentle simmer. Cover and let cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir. Top with green onion.

Notes
*If you don’t have Cajun seasoning and don’t want to make up a batch, don’t worry. You can use 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, and then a dash of cayenne pepper instead.
