Spicy Jambalaya

Andouille sausage adds authentic Cajun flair to this satisfying meal — for a bit less spice, swap in precooked chicken sausage.

• 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 1 cup rice
• 1 scallion, chopped

2. Using 2 forks, shred chicken. Stir back into rice mixture. Top with scallion.
