DIRECTIONS
|
1:
Drizzle the oil on the ham, sausage, onions, celery and bell peppers: and evenly mix with your hands. Heat a 2 qt saucepan over medium heat. Add the ham and sausage and saute until browned, about 5 to 8 minutes,
stirring frequently.
|
|
2:
Add the onions, celery and bell peppers; saute until tender but still firm, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally and scraping pan bottom well. Add the bay leaves, seafood magic and garlic. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly and scraping the pan bottom as needed.
|
|
3:
Add the tomatoes and cook about 7 minutes stirring frequently. Add the tomato sauce and cook for 7 minutes more, stirring often. Stir in the stock and bring to a boil. Then stir in the green onions and cook about 2 minutes, stirring once or twice.
|
|
4:
Add the rice and seafood, stir well and remove from heat. Transfer mixture to an ungreased 13x9" baking pan. Cover pan
with aluminum foil and bake at 350°F until rice is tender but still crunchy, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven. If you still have liquid in the pan bottom, let pan sit a few minutes, still covered, to allow the
rice to absorb the liquid. Remove bay leaves and serve immediately.
