Ingredients

2 teaspoon Paula Deen’s House Seasoning
2 teaspoon Paula Deen Seasoned Salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 lb smoked link sausage
1   3-pound chicken, quartered
1 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
3   bay leaves
8 cup water
3 cup raw white rice

Directions

Slice the sausage into 1/2-inch pieces.  In a stockpot, combine the chicken, sausage, onion, butter, and seasonings.  Add the water, bring to a boil, cover, and cook at a low boil for 40 minutes.  Remove the chicken from the pot and let cool slightly.  Pick the meat from the bones, discarding the bones and skin.  Add the rice to the pot and bring to a boil, stirring well.  Boil for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the rice is done.  Remove the bay leaves, and return the chicken to the pot.
