Dinner Riced Out - Jambaliar

Motivation
It's a week night and I don't want to spend 2 hours cooking and dirty every pot we own.

Ingredients
Rice maker:
1 prepackaged rice and red beans mix plus the listed amount of water
1 bag frozen okra
1-2 Tbsp dried onions
1-2 tsp dried garlic
1 can of corn (optional)
turkey sausage to taste
chicken to taste (optional)
beef to taste (optional)

Garnish:
cooked shrimp or scallops (optional)
Frank’s hot sauce to taste

Mise en Place
Cut up the sausage and other meat.
Put everything but the garnishes in the rice maker in the order listed. Set it to "quick cook."

Method
When the rice maker is done, mix in the seafood and hot sauce and serve.

I’ve done a version where I added the seafood raw to the rice maker. It cooked just fine, but the overall flavor of the dish was fishier than I wanted.
