This one pot smoked sausage and rice is jam packed with delicious flavours, and is extremely filling, making it the perfect dish for a midweek dinner meal.
If you do not enjoy sausages, or cannot eat them because of your dietary requirements, then you can replace it with either beef or chicken, or any other protein of your choice.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large heavy based pot over medium high heat. Add sausages and cook until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add garlic and onion, cook for 2 minutes. Add capsicum and cook for 2 minutes until onion is translucent.
Add rice, chicken stock, paprika, salt, pepper and the sausage. Stir, bring to boil, then reduce heat to low so it’s simmering very gently.

Remove pot from stove. Working quickly, remove lid, add peas, then quickly put the lid back on. Rest 10 minutes – the residual heat with cook the peas.
Add parsley. Use a fork to fluff the rice. Serve immediately!
