This flavorful meal-in-a-pot was inspired by Portuguese arroz de grelos com farinheira, a comforting combination of garlicky rice cooked with turnip greens and sausage. We’ve opted for supple lacinato kale (also called dinosaur or Tuscan kale) instead of turnip greens, which are harder to come by in the U.S. Linguiça is a type of Portuguese sausage seasoned with chili and garlic that typically is sold already cooked or smoked. If it’s not available or if you prefer to use a sausage without any spice, kielbasa is a fine substitute.

Tip

Don’t forget to let the rice cook until dry after it’s added to the pot. This evaporates any water left from rinsing the grains. Also, when simmering is complete, be sure to allow the mixture to rest for 10 minutes to allow the rice to finish cooking and the ingredients to absorb moisture.
