Easy and quick Sausage and Rice Skillet Recipe perfect for weekday night meals.
During the week it can be hard to come up with a tasty meal that can be done easily. That is why I love fixing a sausage and rice meal. It is simple and easy to throw together and it uses one dish! Less time cooking and cleaning gives me more time to speed with my family of an evening. I like to pick up a HILLSHIRE FARM® BEEF POLSKA KIELBASA SAUSAGE at Target in the meat section. I also used Target’s CARTWHEEL to save 20% on the sausage I purchased! Then all I need is to grab up a couple other items to make this delicious sausage and rice skillet recipe.
You could use any of the Hillshire Farm® sausages to create this dish. They would all be great:
- Beef Rope Sausage
- Beef Polska Kielbasa Sausage
- Smoked Turkey Rope Sausage
- Meat Polska Sausage
The reason I chose the Hillshire Farm® Beef Polska Kielbasa Sausage is because I knew it had a great flavor and spice. It goes perfectly with rice.

I made this recipe last night for dinner. I used turkey sausage, fat free chicken broth, green pepper in place of red (that’s what I had on hand), and added a can of diced tomatoes , and onion. I didn’t have minute rice, so I cooked the brown rice in my rice cooker, and added it at the end. I used the broth to cook the vegetables and allowed it to reduce before adding the rice. Even with these changes , it only took about 30 minutes to prepare, and was oh so delicious. Thank you so very much for the recipe. I will be making this again soon.
