Notes
- Slice the sausage evenly: This ensures it will all cook at the same rate.
- Use a large skillet: You'll be adding a lot to it and you'll want room to stir without ingredients falling out of the pan!
- Swap in white rice if you'd like: Since the rice is already cooked, it won't change the cooking time at all.
