<\/p>\nI made another of Delish’s one pan meals this week – cajun rice bake – and it is a keeper! I have to say that I added a little spice at the end because when I think cajun, I think spice, and I thought this dish needed some fresh heat. My family really enjoyed this dish and the one pan convenience is pretty great too!<\/p>\n
You will need: Extra virgin olive oil, an onion, one red and one green bell pepper, garlic, 2 andouille sausage cut into 1″ pieces, 2 large chicken breasts cut into 1″ pieces, one 15 oz can tomato sauce, 2 cups chicken stock, 1 c shredded cheddar cheese, cajun seasoning, 1 1\/4 c long grain rice, and green onions.<\/p>\n
Heat oven to 375. Go ahead and chop your onions and peppers. Slice the sausage and cut the chicken into cubes. Heat the olive oil on the stovetop in a large ovenproof skillet.<\/p>\n

Bring to a simmer. It will look like this. ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mamapalma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IMG_4805.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1\")

Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the liquid is mostly absorbed into the rice. When you take it out of the oven, top with green onions. <\/p>\n

Here’s where I added some extra spice. I chopped a fresh jalapeno and added it and some red pepper flakes and stirred it in. Here’s the delicious result!<\/p>\n
