A delightful one-pan Italian-inspired dish combining savory sausage, vibrant vegetables, and creamy cheese.
Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until browned, breaking it into small pieces.
Ensure the sausage is fully cooked and slightly crispy for maximum flavor.
Add the chopped bell pepper and onion to the skillet and sauté until softened.
Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Use the back of a spoon to slightly mash the tomatoes for a thicker sauce.
Add the rice to the skillet, stirring to combine, and cover. Let it cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Check the rice occasionally and add a splash of water if it seems dry.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top, cover, and let it melt.
For a golden crust, place the skillet under a broiler for a minute after melting the cheese.
Serve the dish warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a side salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
