Oven Baked Jambalaya

• 2 cups uncle ben converted rice
• 1/2 cup margarine, cut up
• 1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can campbell French onion soup, undiluted
• 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can campbell beef broth, undiluted
• 8 ounces canned tomato sauce
• 1 bunch green onion, and tops chopped
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 medium green pepper, chopped
• 1 tablespoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 lb smoked sausage, sliced
• 3 uncooked boneless skinless chicken breasts

1. I use 2- 3 Tablespoons of Bayou Blast to spice this up (recipe#31001).
2. If you don't have any on hand you may use another cajun spice such as Tony Chachere's or use a teaspoon or so of red pepper and black pepper.
3. Just season according to your family's taste.
4. Cut chicken and sausage into bite-sized pieces.
5. Mix together all ingredients in roaster.
6. Cover.
7. Bake at 350 degrees in oven for 1 hour& 15 minutes to 1 hour& 30 minutes.
8. Stir once after 45 minutes.
9. You must use a converted rice LIKE Uncle Ben's (you can use other brands as long as they are CONVERTED RICE).
10. Do not substitute or you will get sticky, mushy results.
