Before You Start

Remove shrimp from the refrigerator.

Measure all ingredients before heating the pot.

Having everything prepared and staged before cooking begins will make the process smoother and prevent overcooking during the faster stages.

Prep (10 min)

Dice onion, pepper, and celery. Mince garlic. Slice sausage. Cut chicken into 1-inch chunks. Measure rice, stock, seasoning, sugar, and vinegar.

1. Brown the Chicken (6–8 min)

Heat butter over medium-high heat. Add chicken and season with ½ tbsp Delta Creole Blend.

Cook 3–4 min without stirring. Flip and cook 2–3 min more until lightly browned but not fully cooked. Remove and reserve.

While chicken cooks: prepare shrimp and stage remaining ingredients.

6. Add Stock & Chicken (1 min)

Add stock, scraping the bottom of the pot. Return chicken and stir once.

7. Simmer (18–22 min)

Cover and reduce heat to low.
