Instructions

Collect all necessary components for the dish.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in a substantial cooking vessel over medium heat. Sprinkle the sausage and chicken pieces with a blend of spices, specifically designed to enhance their flavor. Cook the sausage until it reaches a golden brown color. Utilize a slotted spoon to remove it from the pot, and set it aside for further use.

Add 1 tablespoon of peanut oil to the same cooking vessel, and cook the chicken pieces until they are lightly browned on all sides. Utilize a slotted spoon to remove them from the pot, and set them aside for later incorporation.
4
In the same cooking vessel, sauté a medley of onions, bell peppers, celery, and garlic until they become tender.
5
Introduce crushed tomatoes into the mixture, and season with a blend of spices including red pepper, black pepper, salt, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and filé powder.
6
Combine the chicken and sausage with the existing mixture. Allow it to cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally throughout.
7
Add the rice and chicken broth into the mixture. Stir well to combine.

Bring the dish to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the liquid is fully absorbed.
