Add oil to a large nonstick saucepan. Over medium heat, sauté onion, garlic, bell pepper and celery until onion is translucent. Add parsley, sausage, chicken, bay leaf, and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring often, 5 to 6 minutes. Add tomatoes (with juice), and 1 3/4 cups chicken stock. Gently simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Pour rice into the pan and stir well.
