Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 3 C prepared white rice
- 1 tablespoon canola or olive oil
- 2 C diced tomatoes
- 2 C chopped okra
- 12 oz beef smoked sausage, sliced
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- pinch red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Place skillet on medium heat. Add oil and allow to heat, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Add sausage. Cook for 1 minute, stirring often.
- Add okra. Cook for 1-2 minutes with sausage, stirring often.
- Add tomatoes. Stir often, but not too much as the tomatoes will break down easily. Cook until the thick juice from the okra is broken down.
- Add salt and peppers. Toss gently and serve immediately over rice.
Notes
I prepare my rice while dicing and chopping the other ingredients. Grape or cherry tomatoes are a good choice for this recipe because of their meat to seeds ratio.
