Ingredients:

1 1/2 c long grain white rice, uncooked
2 onions (medium), chopped (or 1 large)
2 1/2 c chicken stock/broth, low sodium (or veg stock)
2 cups frozen peas, thawed
5 garlic cloves, finely minced
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 yellow capsicum, cut into 1.5cm / 1-inch squares
400 grams / 14 ounces (~3) Kransky or other smoked sausages, sliced 0.5cm thick / 1/4-inch thick
1 red capsicum, cut into 1.5cm / 1-inch squares
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions:

Place a heavy pot on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and allow it to become hot.

Put the sausages into the pot, then cook for a few minutes until brown. Transfer them to a clean plate.

In the same pot, add another tablespoon of oil and allow it to become hot.

Stir in the onion and garlic, then saute for a few minutes until soft and aromatic.

Stir in the capsicum, then cook for about 2 minutes or until soft.

Bring the sausages back into the pot together with chicken stock, salt, pepper, paprika, and rice. Stir everything until well combined and allow it to boil.

Turn the heat down to low, then cover the pot with the lid and cook everything for 20 more minutes.

Remove the pot from the stove, then stir in the peas and cover it with the lid. Let the peas sit for about 10 minutes.

Stir in the freshly chopped parsley until well combined.

Serve and enjoy!
