Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add 8 oz sliced smoked sausage and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Step 2
Add 1 diced onion, 1 diced red bell pepper, and 1 minced green chili to the same skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in 1 cup rice and 0.5 tsp salt. Toast for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until rice smells nutty.
Step 4
Pour in 2 cups chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
Step 5
Return sausage to the skillet, fluff rice with a fork, and serve hot with crusty bread on the side.
Step 6
Optional: stir in 1 tsp smoked paprika or cumin with the rice for extra depth.
