From Louisiana Cooking magazine. Couldn't find andouille sausage, and had to use smoked sausage instead. Was still delicious =).

CHICKEN AND ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE WITH PEPPERS (WW 5 POINTS)



Chicken and Andouille Sausage With Peppers (Ww 5 Points) image

My personal rendition of a WW recipe that I love because it packs all the flavors of NOLA while managing to be both fast and light. The level of heat here varies so much based on your brand of Cajun spice and sausage - so taste and adjust accordingly. For those who *do* count points, try finding the lowfat chicken andouille sausage. Half the points of the regular so you can add more to the dish. (Points confirmed on WW Recipe Builder.)
