Recipe Tips

To make this recipe even easier, use pre-cooked chicken and smoked sausage. You can also use a rice cooker to cook the rice separately and then add it to the skillet with the chicken and sausage. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove with a splash of chicken broth to keep the rice moist. Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a green salad for a complete meal.
