Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375F.

Step 2

To a 9x13-inch baking dish add the rice, drained beans, onion, pepper, celery, garlic, butter, tomato paste, Cajun seasoning, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Pour in the Worcestershire sauce and vegetable broth, stirring to combine. Cover tightly with a lid or foil.

Step 4

Bake at 375F for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through. While the rice bakes, pan-fry the sliced sausages in a lightly oiled pan until golden, just 4-5 minutes.

Step 5

Remove the rice from the oven and stir in the pan-fried sausage and parsley. If the rice is a little liquidy you can return it to the oven to bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Otherwise, it is ready to serve. Enjoy!
