Creating One Pan Sweet And Tangy BBQ Sausage Rice involves simple steps. Follow this easy-to-read guide to ensure success:

1. Heat Oil: In a large skillet or pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
2. Cook Sausage: Add the sliced smoked sausage to the pan. Cook for about 5-6 minutes until browned.
3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped bell peppers and diced onion. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
4. Add Rice: Pour in the uncooked long-grain rice and mix it well with the sausage and vegetables.
5. Mix in Broth and BBQ Sauce: Add the chicken broth and BBQ sauce to the pan. Stir to combine everything evenly.
6. Season: Sprinkle in garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to ensure everything is coated in flavor.
7. Bring to a Boil: Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
8. Simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. Let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
9. Add Corn: If using frozen corn, add it about 5 minutes before the rice finishes cooking. If using canned, mix it in right after removing the pan from heat.
10. Fluff and Serve: Once the rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed, fluff it with a fork. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions if desired.
