AUTHENTIC AND QUICK RED BEANS AND RICE (WITH ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE)



Authentic and Quick Red Beans and Rice (With Andouille Sausage) image

I modified this from an authentic Louisiana Red Beans & Rice recipe because I didn't have time to soak dried beans. This still has all the flavor, but is faster since it uses canned beans. A nice touch is to use both light and dark kidney beans and to crumble some sausage into the mix. People will ask you for the recipe for this one!

Categories     Stew

Time 2h30m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 (15 ounce) cans light kidney beans

3 garlic cloves, minced
4 stalks celery & tops, chopped
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes (Fire Roasted)
2 tablespoons sofrito sauce (optional, Goya brand)
1 (1/2 ounce) packet sazon goya (optional)
3 cups long grain white rice, cooked

Steps:

  • Heat one cup of water and soak bay leaves in the water for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced celery and cook 1-2 minutes. Then add diced Onion, bell pepper, and garlic and cook 3-4 minutes.
  • Transfer vegetables to large stock pot. Drain kidney beans, reserving some of the liquid, and add beans to pot. Add one can of diced tomatoes (with liquid) to stock pot. Remove the bay leaves from the hot water and add the seasoned liquid to the pot. (If the bay leaves have not soaked long enough, you can add them later). If additional liquid is needed, add some of the reserved liquid from the beans or a small amount of water.
  • In the same skillet you sauteed vegetables in, add Andouille sausage and cook over medium heat. You can slice the sausage then cook it or cook whole sausage then let cool and slice.
  • Add cayenne pepper, thyme, sage, parsley, and Cajun seasoning to the stock pot with the beans and vegetables. Bring to a slight boil, and then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 1 hour.
  • Stir cooked sausage into beans, and continue to simmer for 30 minutes. At this point, you can add Goya brand Sofrito (a sauce used to season soups and stews) or 1 packet Sazon Goya (a seasoning packet that contains MSG) if desired. You can find Goya products in the Mexican food aisle of the grocery store.
  • Add additional water, salt, pepper, or Creole seasoning to taste, if needed.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the rice. In a saucepan, put 1 Tablespoon butter, and 2 cups water for every one cup dry rice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Serve beans over steamed white rice. Serve Louisiana Hot Sauce at the table, if desired.

RED RICE WITH SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS



RED RICE WITH SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS image

Categories     Pepper     Sausage

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
12 ounces smoked sausage (such as kielbasa or andouille), cut into small pieces
1 medium yellow onion, diced medium
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 red bell pepper, diced medium
1 celery stalk, diced medium
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes or 1 3/4 cups Whole Roasted Tomatoes
2 cups Simple White Rice

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, about 8 minutes. Add onion, garlic, red pepper, and celery; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until celery is tender, 8 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until slightly thickened, 3 minutes. Add rice and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Soak the rice: Soaking the rice before cooking helps to reduce the cooking time and makes the rice more tender. If you don't have time to soak the rice, you can still make the dish, but it will take a little longer to cook.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: A heavy-bottomed pot will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from burning.
  • Don't stir the rice too much: Stirring the rice too much can make it sticky. Stir it gently once or twice during the cooking process.
  • Let the rice rest before serving: Letting the rice rest for a few minutes before serving allows the flavors to meld and the rice to absorb any remaining liquid.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Red rice sausage is a delicious dish on its own, but it can also be served with a variety of toppings, such as fried eggs, avocado, salsa, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

Red rice sausage is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It can be served as a main course or a side dish, and it is sure to please everyone at the table.
