Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Make the rice, in a medium saucepan combine the rice and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until all the stock is absorbed into the rice, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile heat oil in a heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium-high heat. Brown the sausage. Once browned, add the garlic, onion, celery, and green bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Add 1 cup chicken stock and cayenne. Cook until the stock has reduced a little.
Add the cooked rice and parsley and stir thoroughly. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if necessary.
Recommended wine: Rose Wine, Albarino, Sauvignon Blanc
Rosé Wine, Albarino, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Cajun. These low-tannin, lower alcohol wines will complement the heat in spicy cajun dishes, instead of making your mouth burn more. One wine you could try is Ghost Pines Sonoma County San Joaquin County Zinfandel. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 27 dollars.

Ghost Pines Sonoma County San Joaquin County Zinfandel
Our Ghost Pines Zinfandel blends fruit from San Joaquin, Sonoma and Lake counties to accentuate the best of what each of these phenomenal Zinfandel-producing counties has to offer. The 2014 Zinfandel opens with rich, complex aromas of ripe raspberry jam, cracked pepper and toasty oak. On the palate, the wine offers intense, jammy flavors of black cherry, boysenberry, brown spice and cola framed by lush structure and a long, multi-layered finish.
