Set a carbon steel skillet on medium heat. Once hot, add oil, onion, bell pepper and celery. Cook for 2 -3 minutes until fragrant and the edges begin to brown on the onion and bell pepper. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Add the sausage to the skillet and chop it up while it cooks to spread it out in the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes, then add the brown rice.
Sprinkle in the seasonings and mix well, ensuring that every grain of rice is covered in oil and seasonings. Add the vegetable broth, bring to a light simmer, then reduce the heat and cover and cook for about 30 – 35 minutes, until all the liquid has been absorbed by the rice.
Flake the rice with a fork and season to taste with sea salt & pepper.
