Step-by-Step Instructions
- Rinse 1 cup of long-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of chicken broth to a boil, then stir in the rinsed rice. Cover and reduce heat to low, cooking for approximately 15–20 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add 8 oz of sliced Andouille sausage and sauté for 5–7 minutes until browned. Transfer the sausage to a plate, keeping the drippings in the pan.
- Add chopped onion, diced bell peppers, and diced celery to the skillet. Sauté for 5–6 minutes until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
- Stir in 3 cloves of minced garlic and 2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning. Cook for 1–2 minutes.
- Return sausage to the skillet and add 1 lb of peeled and deveined shrimp. Cook for 3–4 minutes until the shrimp turns pink.
- Fold in the prepared rice, adding 1–2 cups of chicken broth as needed to keep the dish moist. Heat through for about 2–3 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, then garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.
