  5. Add the rice to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables and seasoning.
  6. Transfer the mixture to the rice cooker. Add the chicken broth and stir to combine.
  7. Cover the rice cooker and cook on the "white rice" setting, or for approximately 45 minutes, until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  8. Once the rice is cooked, add the cooked sausage and chicken to the rice cooker. Stir to combine.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
