Recipe Introduction

DOM (dear old mom) loves it when I make this!

List of Ingredients

1 tablespoon oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 large cloves garlic, chopped
2 stalks celery
1-14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
1-14.5 oz can chicken broth
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon thyme (give or take, I probably add more)
1 tablespoon chili powder (same as above)
1 cup rice
1/2 lb. smoked turkey sausage or turkey polska kielbasa cut into med. dice



Recipe

In 3-quart saucepan or saute pan, heat oil, saute onion, garlic and celery for approximately 3 minutes. Add tomatoes, broth, water, thyme, and chili powder; bring to a boil. Add sausage and rice, bring to a boil, cover, lower heat to simmer. Cook covered for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, but keep covered for 5 minutes.
Serve.

variations: can add bell peppers, both red and green
sausage can be omitted (but why would you want to?)
