Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 stalks celery, cut into chunks, plus 2 tablespoons chopped celery leaves
3 carrots, cut into chunks
1 red onion, halved and cut into wedges
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon hot smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 cups converted white rice
1 15-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
1 1/2 cups frozen black-eyed peas
8 ounces okra, trimmed and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the celery chunks, carrots and red onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the bell pepper, thyme, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the paprika is toasted, about 1 minute.
  • Add the rice to the skillet and stir to coat. Add the tomatoes, black-eyed peas and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Scatter the okra over the rice. Continue to cook, covered, until the okra is tender and the rice is cooked through, about 5 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, 3 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and sprinkle with the celery leaves. Season with salt and pepper.
