To make this delicious Creole Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 pound of spicy sausage, sliced
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 cups of long-grain white rice
- 4 cups of chicken broth
- 1 can of diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons of Creole seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste

To start, heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, then remove from the pot and set aside. Add the chicken to the pot and cook until browned on all sides, then remove and set aside.
Add the onion, bell peppers, and garlic to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat with the vegetables.

Simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
Once the rice is cooked, add the sausage and chicken back to the pot and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
