Sunny-Side Sausage Fried Rice

Had a couple requests, so here it is - the recipe for Sunny-Side Sausage Fried Rice.  Serves 4.

EVOO
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 cup white rice
2 1/4 cups chicken broth
14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes, drained
5 oz. cooked chorizo, chopped - we typically use uncooked chorizo sausage
1/2 cup bell pepper
4 large eggs
Chopped parsley (for sprinkling on top)

If using the uncooked chorizo sausage, in a large skillet, cook chorizo.  Remove from pan.  Wipe clean of chorizo grease.

Heat 2 Tbsp. EVOO over medium heat.  Add garlic & onion and cook approx. 5 minutes.  Stir in the rice for 1 minute.  Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.  Lower the heat & simmer, covered, for 8 minutes. 

Stir in the tomatoes, cover, and simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed (about 10 minutes).  Stir in the chorizo & bell pepper, cover and cook for 5 minutes more.

In a non-stick skillet, heat 2 Tbsp. EVOO.  Fry eggs to desired doneness.   Divide the rice among 4 bowls, top each with a fried egg and sprinkle with parsley.
