Ingredients

1 onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped

1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 4-ounce jar button mushrooms
8-12 slices garlic sausage or chorizo
Stock (about 1 1/2 cups)

Preparation

  1. Sauté the onion and garlic in hot olive oil until just soft. Add the rice and seasonings and brown lightly. Add the mushrooms and sausage and enough boiling stock to come 1" above the rice.
