- Add a good amount of the broth/water you used to cook the chicken and sausage in, when it boils, add the rice.

This sounds delicious. It's one step further than our "Portuguese Chicken and Rice". We stop before the casserole dish in the oven.

Under ingredients it doesn’t say anything about carrots until you get to directions. So does this recipe have carrots?
