Ingredients

Amounts are scaled from the original 6 servings; cooking times may change for bigger batches.
Steps
- Brown the sausage, then the chicken, in a large pot.
- Add onion, pepper and celery and cook 5 minutes.
- Stir in rice, tomatoes, broth and salt; bring to a boil.
- Cover and simmer on low 20-25 minutes until the rice is tender and the chicken reaches 165°F.
Swaps
- Water plus a bouillon cube or a spoon of soy sauce can replace broth.
- Quinoa, couscous or riced cauliflower can stand in for rice.
- Turkey works the same way as chicken; cook both to 165°F.
Times are a guide; ovens and air fryers vary. Cook poultry to 165°F, ground meat to 160°F, and pork and fish to 145°F. Diet tags come from the ingredient list; check labels for allergens.
