To make this Rice Pot Pie with Creole Twist, you will need the following ingredients per serving: 1 cup cooked rice, 1/2 cup diced cooked chicken, 1/4 cup diced andouille sausage, 1/4 cup diced onion, 1/4 cup diced green bell pepper, 1/4 cup diced celery, 1/4 cup diced tomatoes, 1/4 cup chicken broth, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon flour, 1/4 teaspoon Creole seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 pie crust.
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the andouille sausage and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Add the flour and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the chicken broth and stir until the mixture thickens. Add the cooked rice, chicken, tomatoes, and all the seasonings. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch pie dish. Roll out the pie crust and place it over the top of the dish. Cut a few slits in the top of the crust to allow steam to escape. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
