Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 -6 tablespoons olive oil
2 lbs boneless chicken thighs (cut into about 1-inch pieces)
seasoning salt
pepper
1/2 lb dried kielbasa, sliced (or to taste)
3 large red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic (or to taste)
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1 1/2 cups uncooked converted white rice (I use Uncle Ben's)
2 cups chicken broth (more if needed)
2/3 cup tomato sauce
3 teaspoons louisianna hot sauce (or to taste, opt)
2 cups frozen peas, thawed (can use less)

Steps:

  • heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Season the cubed chicken with seasoning salt and pepper, then brown on all sides; remove to a plate.
  • Add in the smoked sausage and brown slightly; remove to the plate with the chicken.
  • Add in the onions, garlic, red bell peppers, oregano, paprika and cayenne pepper; saute for about 3 minutes.
  • return the chicken and sausage back to the skillet and saute for another 2 minutes.
  • Add in uncooked rice; stir to coat.
  • Add in 2 cups chicken broth, tomato sauce and hot sauce (if using) mix to combine and bring to a boil, cover the skillet (or pot).
  • reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 25 minutes (adding in more both if the mixture seems too dry).
  • Mix in the peas and cook until heated through (about 2 minutes).
  • Season with salt and pepper.
