How to Make Zingy Rice Casserole
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of Italian sausage (removed from casings), 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 1/2 medium onion (chopped). Cook, stirring frequently, until sausage is browned and vegetables are softened, about 8-10 minutes.
- Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
- Dissolve 1 beef bouillon cube in 1 1/2 cups of water and pour into the skillet.
- Stir in 1/2 cup chopped jalapenos and 1 1/2 cups long-grain rice. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is cooked through. Fluff with a fork before serving.
