Skillet Cabbage and Smoked Sausage

pinch of red pepper flakes (more if you like spicy)

1/2 lb. smoked sausage, sliced thin

1 med. head of cabbage, chopped

1 15 oz. can small diced tomatoes

1 14 oz. can chicken broth

1/2 tsp. salt and pepper

1 small onion, chopped

1/2 C. uncooked rice

3 T. butter

Melt butter in a medium skillet (that has a lid). Add in the cabbage and onion and sauté for about 5 minutes on medium high heat. Add the diced tomatoes with juice, 1/2 of the chicken broth, rice, sausage and seasonings. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Watch and stir often as the rice absorbs the liquid add more broth. Cook until rice is tender (took me about 30 minutes). I served mine with cornbread.
