Description

Turn a box of red beans and rice mix into a filling and flavorful, New-Orleans-style main dish just by adding some sliced smoked turkey sausage.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound smoked turkey sausage, sliced
3 1/4 cups water
1 (8 ounce) package ZATARAIN'S® Red Beans and Rice Mix
1 teaspoon Chopped green onions

Directions

1 Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until browned on both sides, 7 to 10 minutes.
2 Stir in water and rice mix; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
3 Remove from the heat and stir in green onions. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
