Just the Recipe:

Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes 1 pound smoked sausage, halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices
• 1 pound Roma tomatoes, diced
• 1 cup broth (beef or chicken)
• 1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste 1 medium onion, diced
• 3 celery ribs, diced
• 2 medium green peppers, diced 5 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 fresh jalapenos, diced (you can adjust to taste) 3 teaspoons dried parsley
• 2 teaspoons dried basil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• White rice, to serve (about 1 1⁄2 cups uncooked)

Directions

Combine all ingredients but rice in a slow cooker. Set it on low for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. Give it a good stir every few hours if you’re home during the day, but you can get away without stirring!

Once the slow cooker is done, (or whenever you get home in the evening) cook up the rice. Spread a bed of rice on a plate, and top with stew. Serve with your favorite Louisiana-style hot sauce!
