Chicken Sausage with Fennel and Apples Recipe

Did they use raw sausage or Fully cooked Sausage?

This is my second time making this dish. This time when it says to cover the apples and sausage of the rice I even covered it with foil to make sure it was steamed. I’m now broiling it for 10 minutes so the sausage can get browned. Also the I used leftover rice as well. So far it looks good

These are the worst set of directions I have dealt with, 375F = approx 200C
Cooking Sausages for 10 minutes, they were raw, fennel & apple nowhere near browned, nowhere was there a mention of cooking the rice as per directions ,,, very very disappointed, had to cook sausages before baking then increase the temp to 450F = 230C , still the vegetables didn't brown, placed under grill/ broiler for 10 minutes to make them edible ... not impressed at all

Leaving this review for Pam. So sorry you experienced such a bad meal. Rice is a tricky thing to cook with, I feel your pain. I think you did okay and I hope your vegetables were cooked thoroughly. Mush isn’t bad! How was the sausage though?!!

I would leave out the ready serve rice next time and maybe make a side with “real” rice. Overall it was tasty!

The recipe wasn't specific what to do with the rice. Do you, or do you not leave the rice in the bag? I took the rice out of the bag, and stacked the sausage and vegetables on top of rice, per the recipe. The rice didn't cook. You need to cook the rice before putting the vegetables on it and baking it in the oven. I had to add water and put the rice and vegetables in the microwave and cook until the rice was tender, making mush of the vegetables. Terrible recipe.
