Cajun Chicken & Andouille Skewers with Dirty Rice

For Mardi Gras, a day early because Tuesdays are dine-with-the-in-laws-days.

Chicken & Andouille sausage seasoned with salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme & paprika, then grilled.

And an (Almost) Dirty Rice on the side.

Vegged up for the non-meat eaters by using faux sausages & chick'n as well as a substitute sausage for the rice.
