Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Spray with cooking spray.

Step 2

Add the sausage, spreading the slices into a single layer across the pan (you may need to do this in 2 batches).

Step 3

Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottoms are golden brown. Flip each to the other side to brown.

Step 4

Place (raw) chicken breasts in slow cooker, and then add the browned sausages.

Step 5

Deglaze your hot saucepan with the chicken broth to remove all of those yummy browned bits.

Step 6

Pour broth into the crockpot. Add chopped onion, green onion, bell pepper, celery, parsley, garlic, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and cajun seasoning. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours.

Step 8

Remove chicken to a plate and shred it into small pieces. At this point you can taste the broth and season with salt or additional cajun seasoning, if needed.

Step 9

Return chicken to the pot and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes.

Step 10

Serve with hot cooked brown rice. Garnish with extra parsley and green onions, if desired.
