• Ready In: 1 hr 30 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 12  ounces  link pork sausage
• 2  lbs chicken breasts, cut into serving size pieces
• 1⁄4 cup flour
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 1  cup onion, chopped
• 1  cup celery, chopped
• 2  cups rice
• 2  cups chicken broth
• 2  cups water
• 14  ounces tomatoes, diced
• 10  ounces peas (frozen)

Directions

1. Brown sausages in a Dutch Oven. Drain all but, 1/4 cup drippings from the pan. Slice the sausages into rounds and then set aside.
2. Coat Chicken with mixture of flour, salt & pepper; brown in reserved drippings.
3. Add onion, celery, broth & water to chicken.
4. Cover and simmer till chicken is nearly tender, about 30 minutes.
5. Add rice, tomatoes, & sausage.
6. Simmer, covered, until rice is tender, about 20 minutes more.*.
7. Add frozen peas; heat through (10 to 20 minutes). Serve.
8. *The original recipe calls for this to be cooked in a Dutch Oven but, I often will bake it at 350 for an hour or put it in the crockpot on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours (follow the recipe until after the chicken is browned, then put everything together. Add peas the last 20 minutes). It always turn out great!
