Delicious Hawaiian-Style Sausage and Rice Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 cups water
• 2 cups white rice
• 12 ounces country-style smoked link sausage
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 cup diagonally sliced celery, 1 inch thick
• 1 (14 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, quartered
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 (8 ounce) can pineapple rings in juice, cubed and juice reserved
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions

1. In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water and rice to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add sausages and 1/2 cup of water. Cover and cook for about 5 minutes, or until sausages are heated through. Remove sausages and thinly slice.
3. Return sliced sausages to the skillet. Add onion, bell pepper, and celery. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until vegetables begin to soften.
4. Stir in tomatoes, beef broth, pineapple cubes, brown sugar, garlic powder, and black pepper. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves and the mixture simmers.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together pineapple juice and cornstarch until smooth. Stir into the sausage mixture. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Serve hot over rice.
