    List of Ingredients


    • 1 cup long grain rice
    • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
    • 1 large onion (about 1 cup chopped)
    • 1 large green bell pepper (about 1 1/2 cups chopped)
    • 8 ounces kielbasa
    • 2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic
    • 1 teaspoon cajun style seasoning
    • 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
    • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
    • 1 (15 ounce) can red beans


    Instructions


    1. Bring 2 cups of unsalted water to a boil in a 2 quart saucepan. Add the rice, cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 17 minutes.
    2. Meanwhile, heat the oil on medium in an extra deep 12 inch nonstick skillet. Peel and coarsely chop the onion, adding it to the skillet as you chop. Rinse and seed the bell pepper and cut into bite size pieces. Add it to the skillet. Raise the heat to medium high.
    3. Cut the kielbasa link in half lengthwise. Cut each half into 1/4 inch slices, adding them to the skillet as you cut. Cook, stirring frequently for 2 minutes or until the onions are tender and begin to brown. While the sausage cooks, add the garlic and cajun seasoning.
    4. Stir in the tomatoes and tomato sauce. Reduce the heat to medium low. Rinse and drain the beans and add them to the skillet. Stir and simmer until the beans are hot. Serve at once over a bed of hot, steamed rice.
    5. Yield: 4 servings
