Ingredients
- 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth or chicken broth
- ¼ cup long-grain brown rice
- 1 teaspoon no-salt-added Cajun seasoning, plus more to taste
- ½ cup grape tomatoes, quartered
- 1 cup roasted cauliflower florets
- ⅔ cup roasted green peppers
- ½ cup canned red kidney beans, rinsed
- 1 3-oz. fully cooked sweet Italian chicken sausage link, thinly sliced
- 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup shelled salted dry-roasted pistachios, coarsely chopped
Instructions
Step 1
Bring broth, rice, and Cajun seasoning to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook for 30 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in tomatoes. If no liquid remains in the rice, stir in 1/4 cup water. Top with cauliflower, green peppers, kidney beans, sausage, oil, and salt; do not stir. Cover and continue to simmer until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes more. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Stir the mixture and add more Cajun seasoning, if desired. Sprinkle with pistachios.
