Number Of Ingredients 24

Extra-virgin olive oil, enough to coat a skillet
4 boneless chicken breasts, julienne-cut
20 jumbo shrimp, peeled and de-veined
All-purpose flour, for dusting
5 links andouille sausage, sliced
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 green peppers, julienned
2 red peppers, julienned
4 stalks celery, chopped
6 fresh okra pods, sliced
1 large Spanish onion
1 tablespoon oregano
4 tablespoons parsley
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon cayenne
10 peeled plum tomatoes, chopped
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 cups long or medium grained rice
4 cups seafood or chicken stock
2 cups tomato juice
10 fresh crawfish, shell-on, optional
1 bunch scallions, chopped
Parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Coat a large, deep skillet with olive oil and keep on high heat until oil sizzles.
  • Dredge chicken and shrimp in flour and add to skillet with andouille sausage. Lower heat and remove the par-cooked shrimp. Add garlic, peppers, celery, okra, and onion and cook on low heat for about 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Add all seasoning and diced tomatoes and Worcestershire.
  • Add uncooked rice and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes on low heat. Add stock and tomato juice, then simmer for 5 minutes on medium heat, taking care to stir to prevent sticking. Once rice has completely cooked, add shrimp and crawfish; simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Serve in a deep bowl and garnish with fresh chopped scallions and parsley.
