Paella ala Sarah

This isn't a real paella, but it's a bunch of leftovers mixed with rice and ultra tasty! Last night we grilled some Italian sausage and kabobs. On the kabobs I strung together vadalia onions, red peppers, pineapple chunks, and broccoli. I drizzled butter on them to make them sizzle.

Back in the kitchen... In a cast iron pot I put butter, garlic and onions and cooked them down. Then I added a wild rice blend and a little lemon juice. I toasted the rice a little and added chicken stock. Mmmm.... I let that cook awhile then added the rest of the water (depends on how much rice you are making) and put a lid on it. Before it was done, I threw some pineapple in for excitement. YUM.

We had that for dinner last night. Today for lunch I chopped up everything small and threw it in with the rice and re-heated it in the same pan. Oh. My. Goodness. It was delicious. And gluten-free. It could've been dairy-free if I had used oil instead of butter, but the butter makes it oh so creamy.

ENJOY!
