3 ½ Tablespoons salt
2 ½ teaspoons thyme
1 ¼ Tablespoons pepper

In a 15 quart pot, heat oil on medium-low heat.

Add onions when hot, move temperature to medium, add salt, thyme, black pepper, green peppers, sausage, and all hot peppers.

In a separate pan, brown chicken in oil until lightly golden brown.

Continue with the first pan, adding scallions, tomato sauce and diced tomatoes, and bouillon cubes.

Add chicken and put heat back to medium-low. Simmer (with the lid on) for 30-40 minutes.

Add uncooked rice and mix well.

Reduce the heat to low and put the lid on.

After 10 minutes, stir, add 3 cups of water and stir well, keep the heat on low, and let sit for about 20 minutes or until the rice is fully cooked.
