AUTHENTIC JAMBALAYA RECIPE (EASY & HEALTHY JAMBALAYA)

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.

CAJUN JAMBALAYA

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or similar pot, fry the bacon over medium heat. When it's crispy, remove and chop. Set aside. Brown the duck and thighs well. Add the onion, celery and green pepper and brown that, too. Let this cook a minute or three, then add the garlic. In some cases, your pot may be too crowded, so if that happens, fish out the thighs for the moment.
• As the vegetables are cooking, use the liquid they release to scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the pot. Let everything cook until you get bits starting to stick again. Add a splash of stock and the tomato paste, along with the oregano and Cajun seasoning. Stir well and let this cook until it starts to stick one more time.
• Stir in the rice and andouille and let this cook for a minute or two. Add in the rest of the stock, stir well, scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pot and bring to a simmer. Cover the pot, drop the heat to low and let this cook until the rice is done, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the chives and parsley before serving.
