About the Recipe

Ingredients
1 lb smoked sausage, mild
1 lb chicken breasts without skin, cooked, diced
¾ pound onion, diced
1 ⅛ tablespoons garlic, minced
6 oz sausage Tasso, cubed
1 ¼ teaspoons fresh thyme
1 ¼ teaspoons fresh basil
¾ teaspoon black pepper
¾ teaspoon white pepper
¾ teaspoon red pepper flakes
22 oz chicken stock
⅔ lb rice
½ tablespoon fresh parsley, curly
oil for cooking
Preparation
In a saucepan, add the oil, sausage, and chicken (if using cooked chicken, add later). Cook for about 20 minutes until the chicken is done. Lower the heat and add the onions and garlic; sauté for about 15 minutes. Keep cleaning the bottom of the pan. Add the Tasso, thyme, basil, black and white pepper
Simmer on low heat for 10 mins. Add the stock to the mix and bring to a rolling boil (add the cooked chicken if used). Then add the rice and keep stirring, so the rice doesn't stick. When it comes to a boil, fold in the parsley. Turn down very low and cover the pot. Let it cook for 25 minutes
