  1. In a frying pan, sauté chicken in 2 tablespoons butter, sprinkling with Cajun seasoning , until thoroughly cooked (about 5~7 minutes). Set aside when done.
  2. Brown the sliced smoked sausage and pour off fat.
  3. In a large cooking pot, sauté the onions, bell pepper, celery, and garlic in cooking oil until onions get a bit transparent.
  4. Once the onions are transparent, add the 3 cans tomato paste and let it brown a little (pince’), but don’t let it burn. The tomato paste will get a deep mahogany color.
  5. Pour 2 cups of the chicken broth into the pot to deglaze the tomato paste and stir until smooth.

  8. Add Meats and cook for another 10 minutes.

  10. Add the rest of the chicken broth and stir in the rice, combining thoroughly. Cover and cook for about 20-25 minutes or until very thick.
  11. Bon Apetite!
