One of my DH's favorite. I tweaked it a little to suit our tastes. It is really quite easy to put together, yields 2 servings and reheats well. I fix a green salad with it and garlic bread for a complete meal. Found this recipe in the Cooking for One or Two .
Ingredients:
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 lb fully cooked smoked sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/2 cup chicken broth

1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 cup uncooked long grain rice
1/2 cubed cooked chicken breast
1/4 lb uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
0.5 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1/4 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped

1. In a skillet, saute onion and garlic in butter until crisp-tender.
2. Add the sausage, broth, tomatoes, green pepper, jalapeno, tomato sauce, bay leaf, thyme and cayenne.
3. Bring to a boil; add rice. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
