Sausage and Rice Skillet is an easy recipe to throw together at the end of a busy day or just anytime. Add some of my fried hoecakes and you have a one-dish meal!

This recipe is very versatile in that you could substitute different kinds of meat and add your favorite spices, too. Smoked sausage or Italian sausage would be great in this recipe.

Sausage and Rice Skillet Simple Ingredients:
Pork breakfast sausage
Green pepper
Onion
Celery
Mushroom stems and pieces, canned or fresh
Chicken broth
Minute rice
Diced green chili peppers (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
You could easily cut the calories and use ground turkey but it won’t have as much flavor as the pork sausage. If you are not a fan of minute rice you can use regular rice. If you plan to cook the rice in the skillet, you will probably need to add more chicken broth. You can also make the rice separate and just add it to the dish. This is a very versatile recipe, so definitely make it your own.
