One Pot Cajun Shrimp Sausage Over Rice Recipes

ONE POT SAUSAGE, SHRIMP AND RICE

Steps:

• Slice the kielbasa into 1/4" rounds.
• Spray the bottom of a Dutch oven (or large pot) with olive oil spray and turn the heat onto medium high.
• Add the kielbasa slices and cook them for about 10 minutes. They are fully cooked, but we are looking for the outsides to get brown and the flavor to render.
• Dice the peppers and onion and add them to the pot with the kielbasa after the 10 minute cooking time.
• Cook the peppers and onion for 10 minutes or until tender.
• Use the moisture from the peppers and onions to pick up the burnt bits from the bottom of the pot, and use your wooden spoon to scrape them up.
• Add the paprika, onion powder, oregano, cayenne and salt.
• Half the cherry tomatoes and add them to the pot. Stir to combine.
• Add the dry, uncooked rice and stir to combine. Add the broth and stir again.
• Bring this mixture to a boil and then cover the pot, and reduce to simmer.
• Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and tender (taste to be sure).
• Add the shrimp to the pot, stir to combine, and cover again. Cook for another 5 minutes or until the shrimp is opaque and firm.
• Chop the scallions and toss to combine.
• Taste for seasoning: add more salt if desired, or more cayenne for heat.

ONE POT CAJUN SHRIMP & SAUSAGE OVER RICE

Steps:

• Season your shrimp with Cajun seasoning. Don't be shy. I like Slap Yo Mamma, which is HOT! Choose the seasoning you enjoy.
• Heat a non-stick skillet with just about 2 TBS oil over med-high heat. When hot add your shrimp (cook in batches so as not to crows the shrimp, add more oil when necessary).
• Cook the shrimp through until pink about 2 minutes per side. Place on a plate tented with foil.
• Slice your sausage into bite-sized pieces and saute until browned a bit. Add more oil if necessary.
• Meanwhile cook your Veetee Dine In Rice in your microwave or wok according to the packages directions.
• Assemble your meal by placing the shrimp, sausage and any juice remaining in the pan over your rice and enjoy!
