Rice & Beans and Grilled Sausage & Veggies with Cilantro Lime Marinade
- Cook Time: 50 mins
- Total Time: 50 mins
- Yield: 6 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of Wegmans Brown Long Grain
- 1 can of Wegmans Black Beans, Caribbean Flavored
- 3 links of Gianelli Turkey Sausage
- 1 Large Red Onion
- 1 package of Wegmans Super Sweet Cherry Tomato
- 1/2 of the bottle of Wegmans Cilantro-Lime Marinade
- Fresh Cilantro
Instructions
- Pre-cook the sausage by boiling 3 links for about 5-7 minutes to be sure it is cooked through (this makes for easier grilling later on.)
- Cut the sausage into bite size pieces and combine with cut onion and tomatoes. Cover the mixture with half of the bottle of Wegmans Cilantro Lime Marinade, and let sit for 30 min.
- Cook one cup of rice with 2 cups of water for 30 minutes (while sausage and veggies marinate).
- Add the Caribbean flavored black beans to the cooked rice and heat through.
- Grill the marinated sausage, onion and tomatoes for about 10 min, until onion is tender. I used a veggie grilling basket. You could also cook on skewers. Since the sausage was pre-cooked, no need to worry about over grilling the veggies waiting for the meat to cook. Grilling the pre-cooked sausage at this stage crisps it up and gives it some nice grilling flavor with the onions.
- Serve grilled sausage and veggies over the black bean/rice mixture
- Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and enjoy!
