How to cook deliciously - Sausage, Rice and Broccoli

1. Stage

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage, and cook and stir until browned, two to three minutes. Stir in the broccoli florets, then cook and stir two minutes longer. Editor’s Tip: Tossing in the broccoli stems (chopped and sauteed, like the florets) will stretch the recipe.

2. Stage

Add the water, tomatoes, seasoned salt, garlic powder and oregano, then bring the skillet to a boil. Stir in the rice, then reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for five minutes.

3. Stage

Remove the pan from the heat, give the rice mixture a stir and sprinkle it with the cheddar cheese. Let the dish stand, covered, until the liquid is almost absorbed and the cheese is melted, about five minutes. If desired, serve with sour cream and hot sauce.
