List of Ingredients




2 tsp olive oil
5 1/3 oz. spicy turkey sausage, ground
1/3 cup onion, finely chopped
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/3 cup red bell pepper, small dice
3/4 cup collard greens, frozen, chopped
3/4 cup brown rice, long grain
2 1/4 cups chicken broth
1 1/8 cup black-eyed peas, frozen
2 teaspoons TABASCO brand Garlic Pepper Sauce
1 small thyme sprig, fresh
salt to taste
black pepper, freshly cracked, to taste


Recipe



1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add sausage. Stir to break up into pieces. Remove sausage when cooked and drain on absorbent towels. Pour off all but enough fat to slightly coat the pan. Add the onion, garlic and red pepper. Sauté over medium heat until onions are tender and golden brown. Add the collard greens and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, black-eyed peas, TABASCO® brand Garlic Pepper Sauce and thyme. Bring to a boil and simmer covered for about 20 minutes or until peas and rice are tender and liquid is absorbed.

2. Fluff rice with a fork and add cooked sausage, heating thoroughly.

3. Serve with additional TABASCO® brand Pepper Sauce, if desired. Serves 4.
