Preparation

Step 1

Put the chopped peppers, onions, garlic, chicken, cajun seasoning, Red Hot, and bay leafs in the crockpot with the chicken stock. Set on low for 6 hours.

About 30 minutes before it’s finished, toss in the cut up sausages.

While this is cooking, quickly make cauliflower rice by pulsing raw cauliflower in the food processor until it resembles rice.

For the last 20 minutes, add in the cauliflower rice and the raw shrimp.
