Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and becomes translucent. (Approximately 5 minutes)

03

Step

Stir in the bite-sized smoked sausage. Continue cooking and stirring until the sausage is nicely browned and slightly crisp. (About 5-7 minutes)

04

Step

Pour in the water, uncooked white rice, and tomato sauce. Add the adobo seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste. Stir well to combine all ingredients. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Bring the mixture to a boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet tightly and simmer until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed. (Approximately 20 minutes)

06

Step

Once the rice is cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

For a richer flavor, consider using chicken broth instead of water.
Feel free to add other vegetables like diced bell peppers or peas for added color and nutrition.
A pinch of saffron threads will elevate the dish with its distinctive aroma and color, adding a touch of elegance.
Serve alongside pinto beans, kidney beans, or a simple green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
Adjust the amount of tomato sauce to your liking for a tangier or milder flavor.
