Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound smoked sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup long grain white rice
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced smoked sausage and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned.
Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the rice to the pot and stir to coat it with the oil and vegetables.
Pour in the chicken broth and add the ground turmeric, ground cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid.
Simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the pot from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the chopped fresh parsley before serving.
