Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya with Okra image

This is an easy recipe that has never let me down. I sometimes use shrimp instead of chicken, which is another tasty option. Just be sure to add the shrimp near the end of cooking time so it doesn't overcook. You might want to start with less than the recommended 1/8 teaspoon cayenne if you are very sensitive to it.

The jambalaya was good, but it was a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
