Step 1

Prepare the rice by combining the rice with 2 cups of water in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low and let cook for about 20 minutes. Remove from heat, keeping rice covered and set aside.

Step 2

Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large stockpot or Dutch oven.

Step 3

Add in the sliced sausage and cook until the sausage starts to get some color.

Step 4

Add the onion, green bell pepper, and celery. Allow this to cook for about 5-6 minutes, until the veggies are just starting to get tender.

Step 5

Add in the garlic and cajun seasoning. Stir to combine. Allow this to cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Pour in the chicken broth, stir in the red beans. Add in the cayenne, ground sage, and bay leaf. Add in salt and pepper to taste.

Step 7

Bring to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook covered for 15 minutes. Remove the lid and continue to cook, stirring occasionally.

Step 8

Using a wooden spoon, gently mash the beans to help thicken.
