1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast cut into cubes
1 pound smoked sausage or turkey smoked sausage, cut into bite s
2 tablespoons butter oil or other vegetable oil
1 onion chopped finely
3 celery smalls ribs, chopped
2 carrots scrubbed well, don't peel them! and sliced thinly
1 cup dry sherry
½ cups water
4 chicken stock cubes I use Knorr Low Sodium
2 beef stock cubes also Knorr
1 bay leaves small large or 2
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper or to taste
black pepper Several grinds of fresh
1/2 cup rice par-boiled, Uncle Ben's
1 cup orzo or other tiny pasta
3 tablespoons tomato paste

1
Heat the oil or butter in a large heavy bottomed pot.
2
When it is hot, add the chicken in batches and brown it on all sides, removing each batch as it browns - crowding too much in the pot will make the chicken steam instead of brown.
3
When the chicken is all browned, add the sausage, onions, celery and carrots to the pot, along with the chicken.
4
Saute for about five minutes, stirring constantly.
5
Add the sherry and let cook on high until it is reduced by half, about five minutes.
6
Add the water and stock cubes, thyme, bay leaves and all three peppers. Stir well, let come to a boil.
7
Reduce heat to medium and let simmer about 30 minutes. Stir it every so often.
8
After 30 minutes, add the rice and stir well again. Let cook another 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
9
Add the pasta and the tomato paste and stir well to dissolve the tomato paste.
10
Let cook another 10 minutes and serve with lots of hot bread and a bottle of Crystal or Tobasco for those who like it HOT!
