Everyone in the family enjoyed this so much. I'm definitely doubling the recipe next time

Variations & Tips
For a spicier version, use hot Italian sausage or add a pinch of red pepper flakes. You can also swap out the white rice for brown rice or quinoa for a healthier twist, though you may need to adjust the cooking time and liquid. If you're looking to add more veggies, consider tossing in some spinach or zucchini towards the end of cooking. For a cheesy finish, sprinkle some mozzarella on top and broil for a few minutes until bubbly.
