Number Of Ingredients 21

1 can(s) (28 oz.) whole tomatoes with herbs and spices (such as san marzano), juice reserved
2 tablespoon(s) olive oil, or more as needed
1 cup(s) red onions, diced
1 large celery rib, diced
1 large red pepper, diced
2 large cloves garlic, pressed
2 large boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 cup(s) cooked ham, cubed
1 cup(s) sausage (such as andouille, chorizo or garlic), thinly sliced and quartered
1 1/4 cup(s) uncooked rice, such as basmati
2 1/2 cup(s) liquid (amount of reserved tomato juice + chicken broth)
1/2 teaspoon(s) hot paprika
1/2 tablespoon(s) chili powder
1/8 teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper, or more to taste if you want "hotter"
2 teaspoon(s) worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon(s) ground thyme
1/2 teaspoon(s) dried basil
1/2 teaspoon(s) gumbo file
1 teaspoon(s) hot sauce, such as cholula®
1/2 teaspoon(s) raw sugar (substitute brown sugar)
10-15 large pickled jalapeño peppers, quartered

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, add tomatoes without the juice (reserved) and crush with hands. Using a slotted spoon, scoop the tomatoes in another bowl and reserve this juice as well; set aside.
  • In a large saucepan over medium, heat oil. When shimmer, add onion and celery; sauté for 3 minutes. Add red pepper and cook for 3 minutes as well. Add garlic and sauté for only a minute. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink. At this stage, it might need more oil to prevent from burning.
  • Stir in ham and sausage before adding the rest of the ingredients; rice, reserved tomato juice, broth, crushed tomatoes, paprika, chili powder, cayenne pepper, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, basil, gumbo file, hot sauced, sugar and jalapeño peppers. Stir well and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 to 18 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from heat, stir it and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
