Instructions: Brown sausage in skillet over high heat. Transfer cooked sausage to plate and add corn oil to the sausage grease in the skillet. Heat oil until very hot.

To prepare the roux, gradually whisk in flour and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, whisking constantly. Flour mixture will turn from beige to light brown to medium brown. When roux is medium-brown, add chicken and vegetables and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Add cooked sausage and remaining ingredients except parsley and tomatoes. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaves. Pour over rice and top with parsley and tomatoes.
