  DO NOT STIR.. Get a good fry going in that pan..you want to brown the butter but not burn it. Also very important..you are looking to actually FRY the green beans..it changes the whole flavor of them.

  When the vegies are cooked through and the sausages are about half cooked through.. -remove the lid -turn the heat back up to medium high -move the food to the edges of the pan creating a well in the center -pour the rice from both boxes into the well in the center of the pan. Stir the rice in the center 2 or 3 times coating the rice grains with oil ..I would say to 'brown' them but they will actually turn white/opaque. Don't burn the rice.
