Steps:
- Melt shortening in a large/huge saucepan over medium heat.
- Cook chicken pieces until brown on all sides and cooked about half way through, around 20 minutes or so.
- Remove and add onion, green pepper, celery and garlic.
- Cook slowly stirring now and again until onions are tender.
- Add sausage and cook 10 min more.
- Return chicken and add all remaining ingredients EXCEPT rice and stir together well.
- Cover and simmer for 30 min stirring now and again.
- Remove cover and continue to cook until broth cooks down a bit-you don't want it too thick as the rice will soak up the juice.
- Serve up the rice in bowls and ladle the Jambalaya on top, and offer more cayenne or Tabasco at the table.
- ***I know that cooking the rice on the side and not in the dish will cause some to have a heart attack, but I've found the flavor much better this way, IMHO.
