Ingredients

1 cup brown rice

2 cups water

2 turkey sausage links cut into 1-inch pieces

1 tablespoon minced garlic or to taste

3/4 red onion diced

1 small green bell pepper sliced

1 small red bell pepper sliced

1 small Yellow pepper sliced

3/4 cup vegetable or chicken broth

1 cup grape tomatoes

2 tablespoons diced pimento

crushed red pepper flakes to taste

Cajun seasoning to taste

black pepper to taste


Directions

Pour brown rice and water into a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, about 40 minutes. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey sausage, and cook until well browned on the outside, and no longer pink on the inside. Remove cooked sausage, then stir in garlic and onion. Cook for a few minutes until the onion softens and begins to turn translucent. Add peppers and cook for 2 - 5 minutes. Pour in half of the vegetable stock along with the tomatoes and pimiento. Season to taste with red pepper flakes, Cajun seasoning, and pepper. Cook until the liquid has almost completely evaporated. Stir in sausage with remaining vegetable broth, and simmer until all is hot. Serve sausage mixture over brown rice.
