How to Make Chicken And Andouille Sausage With Peppers Ww 5 Points

  1. Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Season chicken generously with 1 tsp garlic powder and 1-2 tsp Cajun spice (adjust to taste).
  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp cooking spray.
  4. Add seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add 8 oz low-fat Andouille sausage, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until chicken is opaque and sausage is browned.
  6. Remove chicken and sausage from skillet; cover to keep warm.
  7. Wipe out the skillet to remove excess grease.
  8. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped, to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until softened.
  9. Stir in 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained, and 2 tbsp tomato paste.
  10. Return chicken and sausage to the skillet. Simmer for 6-8 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
  11. Serve hot over cooked rice (points extra). Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
