Instructions
Start
prepping the dish by dicing the onion, peppers, and celery, and mincing
the garlic. Cut the sausage into bite sized pieces and finely chop the
top of the green onions.
In a large heavy duty pan heat a couple of tablespoons of oil on high, place the chicken thighs into the pan skin side down, moving them slightly so they don't stick to the bottom, add the chicken breasts.
Cook the chicken for a couple of minutes then flip everything over to sear the other side. Let everything cook for another two minutes, then add the broth and turn the heat down to a very low simmer. Let the chicken cook for 25 to 35 minutes. This will produce very tender chicken you can pull apart.
Once the chicken is cooked through, pull it out and set it aside to cool. Once it's cooled enough to handle pull the chicken apart by hand into bite sized pieces.
While the chicken is cooling saute the onions, peppers, celery, garlic, and sausage in a large pan for five minutes. You want to make sure not to over cook the vegetables since they will spend a lot of time cooking later.
Bring the stock mixture to a boil, reduce to a low simmer adding the onion and pepper mixture, bay leafs, and tomatoes. Add in the Cajun seasoning, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and thyme and set on a low simmer. Once you've pulled the chicken add it into the mixture letting everything cook on low for 30 to 40 minutes to let the flavors come together.
Add the rice to the mixture giving it a good stir, cover everything up and cook covered for 15 minutes on a low simmer. After 15 minutes take the pot off the heat and let everything set covered for another 10 minutes to let the rice continue to absorb the cooking liquid.
Once the rice is cooked through, season to taste, stir in the tops of the green onions, and serve in bowls.
