"Classical Chicken And Sausage Jambalaya"

Ingredients:
  • 5 lbs. of chicken pieces with skin and bones
  • 2 lbs. of your favorite sausage (andouille, smoked, etc.) cut into small round slices
  • 5 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • 3-4 chopped up white onions
  • 2 stalks of celery chopped
  • 1 green and 1 red bell pepper chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic chopped
  • 2 cups of chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 cups of water
  • 1 can of whole tomatoes chopped up
  • 2 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning
  • 2 1/2 cups of white rice
Instructions:
  • Heat a skillet with the oil. Add the chicken pieces and brown them for 5 minutes of so. Remove the chicken and set it to the side.
  • Add the sausage pieces to the skillet and brown them for 5 minutes or so. Remove the sausages and set them to the side.
  • Add the onions, celery, and bell peppers to the skillet and cook them on medium heat for about 10 minutes. You want the onions to be golden brown.
  • Add the garlic and 1 cup of the chicken broth to these 3 vegetables. Cook together for about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer all of the ingredients to a large pot. Raise the temperature until the liquid begins to boil.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and cover for approximately 30 minutes.
  • The jambalaya will be ready when most of the liquid is gone, and the rice is very soft.
  • Add a bit of Cajun seasonings to taste.
