Ingredients
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
8 cups chicken broth or stock
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups long grain white rice, uncooked
1 pound andouille sausage, sliced into ½ inch pieces
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite sized pieces
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Directions
In a large Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season chicken all over with salt. Working in batches, sear chicken until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a platter, then set aside until cool enough to handle. Once chicken has cooled, shred into bite-size pieces.
