Cook Time 25 minutes
Servings 4 people

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 14 oz kielbasa (we use turkey), sliced and halved
  • ½ medium white onion, diced
  • 1 cup white rice
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 14 oz can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  • ½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the oil and butter over medium-high in a large rimmed skillet (make sure your skillet has a lid!). Add the sausage and onion, and sauté until onions become soft.
  • Stir in the rice and cook for an additional minute while stirring.
  • Add the chicken broth, beans, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and parsley. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is tender. Make sure to occasionally stir to prevent burning.
  • Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper if desired.
