For an extra layer of smoky flavor, consider using smoked andouille sausage. Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to suit your spice preference. If you don't have fire-roasted tomatoes, regular diced tomatoes will work just fine. You can add a pinch of smoked paprika for a similar smoky flavor. This recipe is easily doubled or tripled to feed a larger crowd. Just make sure your rice cooker is large enough to accommodate the increased volume. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

StepRinse rice under cold running water until water runs clear, about 1 minute. Drain well and transfer to the bowl of a rice cooker. (1 minute)
03
StepStir in chicken broth, fire-roasted diced tomatoes, finely chopped garlic, Creole seasoning, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).
04
StepLayer chopped green bell pepper and white onion on top of the rice mixture, then arrange the sliced andouille sausage evenly over the vegetables.
05
StepPlace the rice cooker bowl inside the rice cooker, turn it on, and cook according to the manufacturer's directions until the rice cooker switches itself off. (25-30 minutes)
