Ingredients

  • 2 cups of long-grain white rice
  • 1 pound of sausage, sliced into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 stalks of celery, chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups of chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions and parsley for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Rice cooker
  • Cutting board
  • Knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Wooden spoon

Method

  1. Begin by rinsing the rice in a colander under cold running water. Drain and set aside.
  2. Place the sausage pieces in the rice cooker and turn it on to the sauté setting. Cook for a few minutes until the sausage is browned on all sides.
  3. Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic to the rice cooker. Sauté for a few minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  4. Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, Cajun seasoning, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to the rice cooker. Stir to combine.
  5. Add the rinsed rice to the rice cooker and stir again to combine.
  6. Close the lid and switch the rice cooker to the "cook" setting. Let it cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 30 to 45 minutes depending on your rice cooker.
  7. When the rice is ready, open the lid of the rice cooker and fluff the rice with a fork. Garnish with green onions and parsley if desired.
  8. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use any type of sausage you like, such as andouille or smoked sausage.
  • If you don't have Cajun seasoning, you can make your own by combining paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
  • If you prefer a spicier jambalaya, add more cayenne pepper or hot sauce to taste.
