Chicken and Sausage with Red Gravy
Directions
- 1Go to the store and get an onion (69¢), a green bell pepper (89¢), celery (98¢), garlic (72¢), your favorite cut of chicken ($7.62), your favorite smoked sausage ($6.46), chicken broth ($1.98), tomato paste (97¢), and crushed tomatoes ($1.96).
- 2Trim up the chicken, add olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- 3Throw the sausage in a Magnalite and render the fat for extra flavor. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon.
- 4Add the chicken to the drippings, let it get some color, then remove and put with the sausage.
- 5Add the trinity of vegetables (onion, green bell pepper, and celery). The moisture from the vegetables should help deglaze the pan.
- 6Sauté until tender. Then, add in the garlic and tomato paste.
- 7Cook that down for another minute.
- 8Add all the meats back into the pot with their drippings.
- 9Add crushed tomatoes and chicken broth.
- 10Season with granulated garlic, granulated onion, and creole seasoning. Add bay leaves and let simmer on low for about 40-45 minutes. If you want a looser gravy, add more chicken broth.
- 11Mix it up. Serve over rice or noodles.
