Adding the broth

6

Start off by adding three ladles of chicken stock into the rice and sausage skillet, allowing the rice to absorb the broth, stirring often. Once absorbed, add two more ladles of the broth. This is a slow cooking process that requires small amounts of broth to be added while stirring often to ensure that the rice does not stick to the skillet or burn. Continue until you notice the rice is soft and cooked through.
