This recipe is the find of the century.  It is so easy and the taste is wonderful.   

Ingredients:

2 1/2 C low-sodium chicken broth

1 C long grain white rice (I used Basmati)

3/4 # boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2” piece

1/4 # smoked turkey sausage, like andouille or keielbasa, sliced

1 can (141/2 oz.) low-sodium diced tomatoes

3 T dried minced onions

1 T chopped fresh parsley

1/2 t dried thyme

1/2 t garlic powder

1/2 t freshly ground black pepper

1/2 t cayenne pepper 

1 bay leaf

Directions:

1. In a Dutch oven, combine all ingredients down to the bay leaf.  Stir slightly but make sure the rice remains on the bottom.
2. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cover the pot.
3. Return the heat to medium-low and simmer , stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes.

I actually had to turn it on low for the 30 minutes.  It was delicious and so, so easy.  Will be making this a few times I guarantee.
