Steps:
- Strain tomatoes and add juice to a 4-cup measuring cup. Place tomatoes in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, carefully tear each tomato open to release the liquid inside its seed compartments. Strain all this liquid into measuring cup. Crush tomatoes well with your hands. Add enough chicken stock to tomato juices to total 4 cups (960ml). Set aside.

Add chicken and cook, turning, until browned on both sides, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes, then cut into 1/2-inch chunks and set aside.
- Meanwhile, add sausage to Dutch oven and cook, stirring often, until just starting to darken, about 3 minutes; lower heat and/or add oil at any point to prevent burning. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic and cook, stirring and scraping bottom of Dutch oven, until browned bits have come loose and vegetables just begin to turn lightly golden, about 8 minutes.

COMMANDER'S SHRIMP & ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE WITH CREOLE MUSTARD
This is a recipe from Commander's Palace in New Orleans, from back when Emeril Lagasse was the chef there. The title should read "Commander's Shrimp & Andouille Sausage with Creole Mustard Sauce", but it wouldn't fit! It combines the elements of Creole and Cajun cooking together. Try to find Andouille Sausage because of it's unique taste, but if you can't find it another good quality spicy smoked pork sausage can be substituted. Serve this over angel hair pasta with a chilled light red wine.

- Bring the reserved shrimp shells and 4 1/2 cups water to a boil in a stockpot or large saucepan over med-high heat.
- Decrease heat to med-low and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Strain the stock and add the clam juice and ice water (you should have about 2 quarts of tepid stock, 100 to 110 degrees); discard the shells; set the stock aside.

- Continue stirring constantly, reaching into the edges of the pan, until the mixture has a toasty aroma and is deep reddish brown, about the color of an old copper penny or between the colors of milk chocolate and dark chocolate, about 20 minutes (the roux will become thinner as it cooks; if it begins to smoke, remove the pan from the heat and stir the roux constantly, to cool slightly).
- Add the onions, bell pepper, celery, garlic, thyme, salt, and cayenne to the roux and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables soften, 8-10 minutes.
- Add 1 quart reserved stock in a slow, steady stream while stirring vigorously.
- Stir in the remaining stock.
- Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
- Decrease heat to medium-low, skim the foam off the surface, add the bay leaves, and simmer, uncovered, skimming any foam that rises to the surface, about 30 minutes.
- Stir in the sausage and continue simmering to blend the flavors, about 30 minutes.
- Stir in the shrimp and simmer until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Off the heat, stir in the parsley and scallions and adjust the seasonings with salt, pepper, and cayenne to taste.
- Remove the bay leaves and serve immediately.

- Cook the shrimp and sausage separately: This will help to prevent the shrimp from overcooking and becoming tough.
- Use a heavy pot: A heavy pot will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the dish from burning.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you overcrowd the pot, the shrimp and sausage will not cook evenly.
- Serve immediately: Creole shrimp and sausage is best served immediately, while it is still hot and flavorful.

It is a great way to use up leftover shrimp and sausage, and it is also a great dish to serve at parties or potlucks.
