Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Dice the chicken breast and set aside. Slice the green onions for garnish.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, green bell pepper, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

  2. 3

    Add Garlic and Sausage

    Add minced garlic and diced Andouille sausage to the pot. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring regularly.

  3. 4

    Cook Chicken

    Add the diced chicken breast to the pot and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 5

    Incorporate Tomatoes and Spices

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, Cajun seasoning, salt, black pepper, and bay leaves. Mix well and let it cook for about 2 minutes.

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, add the long-grain rice, stir, and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the liquid.
