  • 2 saute chicken, lamb and sausage in its own fat. allow it to cook for a long time (at least 45 minutes) so that it will become tender.
  • 3 remove the cooked meat from the pot, set aside.
  • 4 saute the onion, green onion bottoms, garlic, and celery until transparent. put the meat back into the pot. add reserved broth, and enough water to make 5 cups total liquid added. season to taste with kitchen bouquet and gravy master (you don't need more than 1/2 a teaspoon of either.) add green onion tops.
  • 5 bring to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to simmer for a while (at least 30 minutes) for the flavors to meld.
  • 6 add the rice, and stir to prevent it from sticking. when the liquid is almost absorbed, remove from heat and cover the pot. allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
