Creole

I learned this recipe from a friend in Louisiana, it's been a favorite in my house since day one! I've changed it some over the years so I know it's not a traditional recipe, hence the Creole "Style" title! I usually serve it up with some cornbread muffins and sweet tea. Delicious!

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed
1 (14 ounce) package loop sausage beef polska kielbasa, sliced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 yellow onion, chopped
3 large celery ribs, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 bunch scallion, chopped
1 (32 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juices
1 (15 ounce) can chicken broth
1 1/4 cups long grain rice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon tony chacere's creole seasoning, no substitutes for Tony's
1 teaspoon salt
cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook sliced sausage over medium high heat in a 6 quart stock pot until slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Add bell pepper, onion, celery, garlic and scallions and cook until softened but not translucent, about 4 minutes.
  • Add cubed chicken breast and worcestershire sauce and cook just until you can no longer see pink.
  • Add the bay leaves, basil, oregano, sage, paprika, Tony Chacere's, salt, black pepper, tomatoes and chicken broth.
  • Bring to a boil over medium high heat.
  • Add rice, bring back up to a boil.
  • Boil for 1 minute.
  • Cover reduce heat to low, simmer for 30 minutes.
  • The jambalaya should still be wet, but not soupy.
  • Ladle into bowls and serve up with some cornbread!
  • Cook's Note: I find that when cubing the chicken breast it's easiest to do so when it's still mostly frozen and with a sharp knife. Way easier than a wiggly raw chicken breast!
