Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons oil, divided
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cubed
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon salt
4 andouille sausages, cooked and sliced
1 sweet onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1 jalapeño, minced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ cups chicken stock
2 cups crushed tomato
3 cups rice, cooked al dente
2 bay leaves
1 lb shrimp, peeled and divided

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven over medium- high heat. Add the chicken, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, cayenne, and salt. Stir to coat.
  • Once chicken is fully cooked, about 5 minutes, add the sausages and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken and sausage from the pot and set aside.
  • Using the same pot, add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pot. Add the onion, celery, green pepper, jalapeño, garlic, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Cook until vegetables are soft and tender, scraping any brown bits on the bottom of the pot, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Add chicken stock, crushed tomatoes, cooked rice, and bay leaves. Stir well and add the chicken and sausage back into the pot. Bring to a simmer.
  • Put the lid on and continue simmering for 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the shrimp. Put the lid back on and cook for 5 minutes, or until shrimp are cooked through.
  • Enjoy!
