Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, Sausage Burger Seasoning, and Spicy Lemon Chicken Seasoning. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Sear the chicken thighs skin-side down until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

3. Brown the Sausage:
In the same pan, brown the sliced andouille sausage. Remove and set aside.

In the same pan, sauté the diced onion, bell pepper, and celery until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, Smokey Bacon Seasoning, and salt to taste. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.

5. Create the Sauce:
Stir in the tomato paste and chicken base. Add diced tomatoes with their juices and mix well.

6. Braise the Chicken:
Nestle the seared chicken and browned sausage into the sauce. Bring to a simmer, then transfer to the oven and cook uncovered for 50 minutes.

7. Finish and Serve:
Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions. Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or with crusty bread for dipping.
