CHICKEN SAUSAGE & BROWN RICE CREOLE

I was craving a southern dish the other day, and I wanted to make it a healthy one. Do you have any idea how many calories and fat are in southern dishes? OMG! It's like a heart attack waiting to happen. But, they are sooo good! So, I was out on a mission to make a great family meal that I would consider healthy and clean. This is what I came up with and I think it turned out perfect.



CHICKEN SAUSAGE & BROWN RICE CREOLE
Servings: 4
Cooking Time: About 25 minutes {this does not include the time to cook your brown rice}

Ingredients
2 cups brown rice, cooked
4 Bistro Sensations Chicken Sausage {I used the Smoked Mozzarella with Artichoke and Garlic}
1 cup grape tomatoes, chopped in halves
1/2 green pepper, sliced
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
1/2 cup chicken broth, low sodium
Salt & pepper, to taste
1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning

Directions
1. Warm chicken broth in frying pan. While chicken broth is warming, cut chicken sausages into slices. Place sausage slices into frying pan with chicken broth and heat on medium heat for about 7 minutes. While your sausage is cooking, cut up your tomatoes, onions, and peppers. Do not pour out your chicken broth when sausage is done cooking. Your going to want to keep it in the frying pan.

2. Now add your vegetables and cooked brown rice. Flavor with salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning. Let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. If your chicken broth has evaporated or your dish seems dry, add another 1/4 cup of broth to your dish.

3. Serve warm and enjoy!
