BLEND OF THE BAYOU
My sister-in-law shared this recipe with me when I first moved to Louisiana. It's been handed down in my husband's family for generations. It's quick to prepare, nutritious and beautiful. I've passed it on to my children, too. -Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana

BAYOU STEW
Hot and spicy, just what you need on a cold night. This stew isn't too thick but thickens up nicely when served over the rice. Sausage and beef broth give this stew a good, hearty flavor and the cajun seasoning adds a nice kick. Total comfort food!

Steps:
- 1. Bring 2 cups lightly salted water to a boil in a covered 2 quart saucepan. Add the rice, stir, and reduce heat to low. Cover the pan and simmer until rice is tender.
- 2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a 4 1/2 quart Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Finely chop the onion and add them to the pot. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and add to the pot. Raise heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring, until the chicken is almost cooked through, about 4 minutes.
- 3. Meanwhile, cut the sausage link in half lengthwise. Slice both halves into roughly 1/4 inch pieces. Add the sausage to the pot and continue to cook, stirring from time to time, while you stem, seed, and cut the bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Add the broth to the pot, raise the heat to high, and add the bell pepper. Cover the pot and bring the soup to a boil. Add the Cajun seasoning. Re-cover the pot, reduce the heat to medium, and cook at a moderate boil until the bell pepper is tender about 3 minutes.
- 4. In a small jar, mix the flour with 3 tablespoons of cold water until there is no lumps. Gradually add the flour mixture to the soup stirring constantly until thick. Serve with rice.
BAYOU CHICKEN PASTA
Steps:
- Set a large 1-gallon stock pot of water to a boil and add the kosher salt. Place the linguine in the pot and stir until the water returns to a boil. Cook the pasta until tender, but with a bit of resistance (al dente), about 12 minutes.
- While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce. Set a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the pan. Once the butter has melted, season the chicken with 1 tablespoon of the Essence and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and add the chicken to the pan. Sear the chicken until well browned on both sides, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside. Add the onions and habaneros to the pan and saute until the onions are softened and lightly caramelized, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the cream, remaining 1 tablespoon of Essence, remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and the chicken to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce until the cream is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, linguine and the reserved cooking water to the pan and cook, tossing to incorporate for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and add the green onions, Parmesan and parsley and toss to blend. Serve immediately.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
