Instructions

  1. Heat a third of the olive oil in a large stockpot. Add chicken and sausage to pan and cook until lightly browned, breaking sausage into bite-sized chunks as it cooks (5-6 minutes).
  2. Add jalapeño, onion, and garlic. Cook until just soft (6-8 minutes).
  3. Add Cajun seasoning, tomato paste, canned tomatoes, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and add rice. Cover pot and simmer on low until rice is tender, adding extra water if necessary to keep the pan from going dry (40 minutes).
  4. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  5. Stuff peppers with cooked rice mixture, drizzle with hot sauce and remaining olive oil. Place in oven and bake until peppers are tender when pierced with a fork (25-30 minutes).
