1 tsp. black pepper

Brown the sausage and pork in oil in a large heavy frying pan or Dutch oven. When lightly browned, add onions, garlic and green pepper; saute 5 minutes or until vegetables are soft. Stir in remaining ingredients except salt cayenne and shrimp. The liquid should just cover the ingredients; add more if necessary. Cover and simmer 25 minutes, until liquid is absorbed and rice is cooked. Add salt and cayenne to taste. Add shrimp and cook until they turn pink (about 5 minutes).

Delicious easy recipe. Only problem is there is not enough liquid for the rice and it takes twice as long to cook. I followed the recipe exactly and when the dish should have been ready many of the grains of rice were hard or chewy. So I added more broth and cooked it longer. Half hour later, more rice is cooked, but there is still some uncooked rice. So I added more broth and let it cook even longer. It's delicious, but I planned to eat dinner an hour earlier.
