• Add sausage and cook 10 min more.
• Return chicken and add all remaining ingredients EXCEPT rice and stir together well.
• Cover and simmer for 30 min stirring now and again.
• Remove cover and continue to cook until broth cooks down a bit-you don't want it too thick as the rice will soak up the juice.
• Serve up the rice in bowls and ladle the Jambalaya on top, and offer more cayenne or Tabasco at the table.
• ***I know that cooking the rice on the side and not in the dish will cause some to have a heart attack, but I've found the flavor much better this way, IMHO.
