Tatse of Home Smoked Kielbasa and Rice

I’m still working with Tatse of Home magazine submitting and reviewing recipes and actually they featured me as their Community Cook of the month this month, I am thrilled to have been chosen. All of the community cooks are in a private facebook group and one of the other members posted this recipe and mentioned how much her family enjoyed it. I thought I would give it a try! I did change one thing by adding a full bottle of BBQ sauce instead of half as we like extra sauce for the rice. We really liked the spice you get from the red pepper flakes and horseradish. Easy dish with a little zip to it. I served it with jasmine rice.
Serves 6

INGREDIENTS

2 pounds smoked kielbasa-sausage halved lengthwise and cut into 1/4 inch slices
1/4 cup finely diced onion
3 bacon strips, chopped small
3/4 cup or more honey BBQ sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon crushed red peppers
1 Tablespoons prepared horseradish

Hot cooked rice for serving.

DIRECTIONS

In a Dutch oven sauté the bacon pieces until almost all the way cooked through, add the kielbasa and onion and sauté until the onion is tender. Add the BBQ sauce, brown sugar, horseradish, garlic and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil and mix to combine. Cook for 2-3 more minutes and remove from heat.
Serve warm over cooked rice.

Enjoy!
