Instructions

1.Heat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Drizzle in the avocado oil and saute the sausage and chicken until brown. As you do this, don’t stir continually. Leave the meat undisturbed to allow it to brown and caramelize in the skillet. You’re looking to build fond - a bit of sticking - in the pan. Move to a plate - the chicken will return to the pan to finish cooking.
2.Add in the onion, bell pepper and celery. Cook until softened and brown. Be sure to scrape up any browned bits. Add in the garlic and Jambalaya Seasoning and salt. Sauté for 1 minute. It will be very fragrant.
3.Add the meat back into the mixture along with the rice. Stir to coat the rice well with the aromatics. Add additional avocado oil if the mixture seems dry.
4.Add in the bay leaf and stock. Bring to a full, rolling boil. Reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook for 18 minutes. Remove the cover and taste. If the rice is still al dente, splash with a little additional stock and cover. Check the rice again in 4 minutes. Use a fork to gently distribute the meat and rice to combine.
