Chicken Andouille Succotash

Chicken Andouille Succotash

adapted from Bon Appetit February 2002

The fava beans in the recipe can be replaced by lima beans to make a more traditional succotash. I chose favas because I had them in the freezer.

If you can't find chicken andouille, 3 ounces of turkey kielbasa can be used but the point value will increase to 1.
