Directions:
Heat oil in a large skillet (one with a lid) over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, green pepper and celery and saute until tender.

Add rice and all remaining ingredients except the shrimp, stir. Bring to a gentle boil, then cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes, until rice is almost done. Stir in shrimp and 1/4 cup water or more chicken stock if mixture looks dry. Simmer an additional 5 minutes, or until shrimp is pink and rice is tender.

Serve with crusty bread.

Personal Notes:
Whether or not you need to add additional liquid will depend on the type of sausage you use and how much liquid it adds to the rice. If you cannot find a smoked andouille sausage, you can use a chorizo or a spicy kielbasa instead. If the sausage is dry, you'll need to add more stock. This is medium-spicy. If you like your food extra hot, add more hot sauce!
