Cheesy Kielbasa, Rice and Broccoli Skillet

Step 1

Heat olive oil over medium high heat in a large, lidded skillet.

Step 2

Brown kielbasa in the skillet, 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Step 3

Saute onion and bell pepper until onion is translucent. Make sure to work the brown bits off the bottom of the skillet - more flavor :)

Step 4

Add garlic and cook for an additional minute. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Add rice to the skillet and stir to combine. Continue stirring for 1 to 2 more minutes.

Step 6

Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.

Step 7

Without disturbing the rice, add the broccoli to the top of the rice and cover again. Cook an additional 5 to 7 minutes or until rice is tender.

Step 8

Stir in kielbasa and 1 cup of cheese.

Step 9

Top with remaining cup of cheese. Cover with lid and let sit for 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese is melted.
