Description
These charming single serving casseroles make ideal family dinners or an offering for a casual dinner with friends. They're made by simmering a turkey leg in a flavorful mixture of bacon, wine, soy sauce, and chicken broth, which is then strained and used to cook the rice. Then the rice is layered in a baking dish with the chopped cooked turkey meat and then smoked sausage and baked to heat through.
