Categories     Main Course

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 Tbsp olive oil ((or oil of choice))
1 medium onion, (chopped)
2 large stalks celery, (chopped)
1 medium bell pepper ((any color, but I used red))
4 Tbsp garlic, (minced)
1 pound chicken breast, (cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
9-10 ounces sausage, ((link type) cut into bite-size medallions (andouille or any sausage of choice))
1 tsp cayenne pepper ((more or less to taste))
2 tsp paprika ((more or less to taste))
salt (to taste)
black pepper (to taste)
1 tsp thyme (, dry )
1 Tbsp oregano (, dry)
1 Tbsp basil (, dry)
1 can crushed tomatoes, (undrained (28 ounces))
3 cups chicken broth ((or stock))
1 cup rice, (uncooked (I used Lundberg Jubilee, a wild mixed rice))
½ pound shrimp (medium size, tail on or off, raw or cooked)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil on medium in a large Dutch oven on the stove top.
  • Add onion, celery, and bell pepper and cook about 5 minutes.
  • Add garlic, basil, oregano, and thyme and stir. Cook for about 5 more minutes.
  • Add the chicken and sausage and let brown for 5-10 minutes, stirring often.
  • Add cayenne pepper and paprika to the meat mixture and blend lightly.
  • Pour in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, and rice and mix. Bring to a light boil, then lower the heat to 1-2 and cover.
  • Cook covered on low for 45 minutes, stirring a couple times to make sure the rice isn't sticking to the bottom.
  • During the last 5-10 minutes of cooking, add the shrimp to the top of the mixture and cover. Check again after about 5 minutes and flip shrimp over, making sure not to cover it deeply so you can keep an eye on its doneness. Cover and cook 5 more minutes or until shrimp is opaque pink and white.
  • Serve right away with a side salad and crusty bread if desired.

AUTHENTIC JAMBALAYA



Authentic Jambalaya image

A good recipe I got from a Justin Wilson cookbook. I didn't change much just tweaked a few things and halved the recipe, so it's pretty true to his recipe. This is nice and mild, not a lot of spice so my wife likes it. I have to add at least a tsp of Tabasco to each bowl though. I hope you enjoy it.
