Ingredientes

2 tbsp oil or butter

½ cup onion, chopped

½-1 Andouille or similar sausage, sliced, (I usually use Kielbasa)

1 1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning

1 cup white rice, uncooked

One 14-oz can kidney beans

One 14-oz can diced tomatoes

1 ½ cups water or broth

Salt, to taste

Pepper, to taste

1-2 cups mixed vegetables, chopped, (bell peppers, zucchini, summer squash, and corn all work great)

1-2 cups greens, chopped, (spinach, collards, and baby kale work great)

Hot sauce, to serve

Instruções

Heat oil in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Saute onion (and veggies, if using) until onion is translucent. Add kielbasa about halfway through onion cooking.

Stir in Cajun seasoning and rice and let it lightly toast for 1 minute. Pour in tomatoes (and greens, if using) and water. Stir well.

Open and drain kidney beans, then add them to the skillet and stir. Cover pan and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes - or until rice is done (time varies depending on the kind of rice).

Add salt, pepper, and hot sauce to taste. Serve with a salad or steamed vegetables.
