CREOLE JAMBALAYA



Creole Jambalaya image

Jambalaya is a traditional Louisiana dish, coming from our Spanish and French culture. Rice is the main ingredient, with different meats or seafood mixed in. I particularly like this variation with shrimp and ham. -Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana

CREOLE JAMBALAYA



Creole Jambalaya image

This Creole jambalaya recipe adapted from Picayune's Creole Cook Book interestingly states no tomatoes to be added, a divergence from today's standards of what makes a Creole jambalaya. The meat is strictly pork, although it's suggested veal brisket can also be used instead. There are no vegetables, except for the onions, and the dish is generously seasoned with a variety of spices and herbs.

CREOLE JAMBALAYA



Creole Jambalaya image

I found a version of this in reader's digest many years ago. I have since revised it to my own tastes so many times that I no longer even remember what the original recipe was anymore. I love it very spicy so I use extra hot sauce at the table. Tabasco is my preferred brand but Frank's isn't too bad. Just not as spicy but with very good flavor.

CAJUN JAMBALAYA



Cajun Jambalaya image

This recipe took me a year to perfect. The secret to making a Cajun jambalaya is to get the right amount of fond, those delicious browned bits left behind from browning your meats, to build the flavor and color of your jambalaya. We're also going to add a little tomato paste for color and flavor.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

3 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder or granulated garlic
1 tablespoon onion powder or granulated onion
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1 tablespoon white pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/4 cup canola oil
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, chopped into 1-inch pieces
24 ounces smoked beef sausage, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 medium Spanish or white onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 cups parboiled long-grain brown rice
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
2 bunches green onions (6 to 8 bulbs), sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • For the Creole seasoning: Combine the salt, black pepper, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, white pepper and cumin in a medium bowl.
  • For the jambalaya: Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 5-quart heavy-bottomed pot or large Dutch oven over medium heat. Rub the chicken with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons of the Creole seasoning in a medium bowl until evenly coated. Add the chicken to the pot and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a large bowl. Add the sausage to the pot and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the large bowl with the chicken. The bottom of the pot should be covered with browned bits.
  • Add the celery, onions and peppers and cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, bay leaf, cayenne, thyme and 2 teaspoons Creole seasoning. Add the rice and stir once or twice to coat. Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, cooked chicken and sausage and remaining Creole seasoning. Stir in the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until the liquid is reduced, and you see little holes on the top, about 30 minutes.
  • Use a fork to stir in half of the green onions and fluff the rice. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Garnish with the remaining green onions and serve immediately.
