5 pounds Chicken
4 cups Water
2 whole Celery Stalks
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
3/4 teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
1 teaspoon Paprika
3 teaspoons Salt, Divided
1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
1 whole Bay Leaf
1 pound Smoked Sausage
2 cups Uncooked Long Grain Rice

1
Make sure youve removed the giblets from the chicken.
2
Place chicken into a large pot or Dutch oven.
3
Add water, celery, onion powder, red pepper flakes, paprika, 2 teaspoons salt, black pepper, and bay leaf.
4
Bring to a slow boil over medium heat.
5
Once water begins to boil, reduce heat down to low, cover, and allow to simmer for 1 hour.
6
Remove chicken from Dutch oven and remove all the skin and bones.
7
Cut chicken into small chunks and set aside.
8
Carefully skim the surface of the liquid and remove the fat.
9
Strain the liquid and reserve 4 cups.
10
Set aside.
11
Slice sausage into 1-inch pieces.
12
Add sausage to the Dutch oven and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes.
13
(This just allows the sausage a chance to get slightly crispy.
14
You can skip this part and add everything in all at once if youd like.)
15
Add the reserved 4 cups of liquid, chicken, 1 teaspoon of salt, and rice, and bring to a boil.
16
Cover and reduce heat to low and cook for 20 minutes.
17
Some stir their pilau a few times, but I set it and forget it.
18
This insures the rice gets cooked to perfection!
19
Serve and enjoy!
