• 1/2 teaspoon ceyenne pepper
  
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  
• 1/2 pound chicken breast (3/4 inch dice)
  
• 3 tablespoons vegetable shortening
  
• 2 onions, chopped
  
• 3 or more cloves garlic, minced
  
• 1 rib celery, chopped
  
• 1 tomato, diced
  
• 1 cup raw long grain rice
  
• 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
  
• 3/4 pound smoked sausage, such as kielbasa, sliced thin
  
• 1 pound cooked ham, diced

Instructions



1. In a bowl, mix salt, peppers, paprika and coat chicken with mixture.
   
   
2. In a large, heavy pot with a tight fitting lid, heat shortening. Add chicken and sear on medium heat until brown, about 3 minutes. Set aside. Add onions, garlic, and celery to pot and sauté until soft, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and blend. Add rice and cook until it is golden, about 2 minutes. Add stock, reserved chicken, sausage, and ham. Bring to a boil, stirring. Lower heat and cover. Cook over low heat for 30 minutes. Check rice for tenderness. If it seems too dry, but rice is not yet tender, add a little more stock, cover, and continue cooking. When rice is done add green onions and parsley and toss lightly to combine.
