QUICK AND EASY JAMBALAYA



Quick and Easy Jambalaya image

This recipe is a quick and easy way to enjoy jambalaya without spending too much time in the kitchen. It has just enough spice to give it a kick without making it too spicy. I use turkey kielbasa to make this recipe a little more healthy. I also suggest making your own home-mixed Cajun seasoning to avoid too many unnecessary additives.

QUICK AND EASY - BUT DELICIOUS - JAMBALAYA!



Quick and Easy - but Delicious - Jambalaya! image

Even though I'm a born-and-raised Arizonan, both of my grandparents are from southern Louisiana. As a result, I grew up eating a lot of good, homecooked Cajun food!! This isn't a family recipe, but it rivals any I've had. (It's a combination of several recipes I found online.) I find myself craving it once every couple of weeks...luckily my boyfriend loves it too! :-) This can be made with 2 pounds of chicken, or 1 lb chicken + 1 lb smoked sausage. The chicken / shrimp is our favorite way to make it, and the chicken / smoked sausage is a close second.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: Andouille sausage is the traditional choice for jambalaya, but you can also use other types of smoked sausage, such as kielbasa or chorizo.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sausage and vegetables, make sure to give them plenty of space in the pan so that they can brown properly.
  • Use a good quality stock: The stock you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your jambalaya. Use a homemade stock if you have it, or a good quality store-bought stock.
  • Cook the rice until it is tender: The rice should be cooked until it is tender but still has a little bite to it. Overcooked rice will make your jambalaya mushy.
  • Add the shrimp and chicken at the end: The shrimp and chicken cook quickly, so add them to the jambalaya towards the end of the cooking time.
  • Season to taste: Jambalaya should be well-seasoned, so taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Conclusion:

Jambalaya is a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients. It is a great way to use up leftover rice and vegetables, and it is also a perfect dish for a party or potluck. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a delicious pot of jambalaya that your family and friends will love.
