1.
Heat oil in a large deep pan over medium high heat.
2.
Once hot, brown the chicken and sausage. Then remove and set aside.
3.
Turn the pan down to medium, and then add in the onion, peppers, celery and garlic. Cook for a few minutes, until soft. Stir often to avoid sticking.
4.
Add in the rice or quinoa, tomatoes, stock and spices. Stir to combine.
5.
Bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook for about 20-25 mins when the rice should be cooked and soft. You may need to stir occasionally to prevent sticking and let the liquid combine.
6.
Add back in the chicken and shrimp.
7.
Then add in the shrimp and spinach, stir and then cover again for another 5 minutes.

Tip
For low carb, use quinoa instead of rice. For low fat, use chicken breasts and a very lean sausage or omit the sausage.
