EASY JAMBALAYA RECIPE



EASY JAMBALAYA RECIPE image

Our quick and easy jambalaya recipe is a flavorful and filling dish all made in one pot - perfect for busy nights! This comforting, Cajun dish calls for boneless skinless chicken breasts alongside smoked sausage, two ingredients necessary to lend deep richness to the rice. Combined with sautéed onions and Cajun seasoning, and then mixed together with chicken broth and stewed tomatoes, homemade jambalaya is comfort food at its best. While jambalaya is a hearty meal on its own, we love to serve it with homemade cornbread, creamed corn or a simple side salad for a complete spread. For a twist on this recipe, try our other easy jambalaya recipe with sausage and a medley of veggies. Craving more bold spices and Southern-inspired favorites?

CHEF JOHN'S SAUSAGE & SHRIMP JAMBALAYA



Chef John's Sausage & Shrimp Jambalaya image

While true jambalaya is really more of a thicker rice stew than a soup, it's one of those dishes that more stock can be added to easily make it into a soup recipe. Serve garnished with green onion.

JON'S EASY JAMBALAYA



JON'S EASY JAMBALAYA image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Shellfish

Yield 8-10 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 11

2-4 cans, chicken broth [go for one with high protein - you'll discover some of the 'famous' brands have ~1gm protein/serving - while others will have 4-6gm/serving.]
1-2 cups, white wine, [optional - adds some flavor]
1 16oz can, chopped tomatoes [or second can/jar of salsa]
1 16oz can/jar, medium salsa [ - or hot, depending on taste]
2 medium onions
2 celery stalks
1# shrimp, 40-60count fresh/frozen unpeeled [adds more flavor than pre-cooked]
1# Andouille Sausage [one brand has chunks of meat instead of ground- the taste is so much better!]
12-16oz long grain/wild rice
2-4 tbsp, Olive Oil
optionals: cayenne pepper, Worchestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Put shrimp into warm water to thaw put 2 cans chicken broth [***] , white wine[or extra can of chicken broth], tomatoes, and salsa into crock pot, high heat Cut Andouille sausage in half lengthwise, then slice in 1/4 inch pieces Chop onion and celery In skillet, medium high heat, add olive oil Brown Andouille sausage, then dump into crock pot, saving oil Saute Onions and celery, then dump into crock pot Turn crock pot to low, will take about 2 hours to be simmering throughout. In the meantime, peel shrimp, divide in half, and dump into crock pot about 1/2 hour before serving You can add rice directly to crock pot - makes thicker jambalaya, may need to add additional chicken broth. As alternative, when shrimp have turned white, [about 1/2=>1 hour], take 2 cups of broth from crock pot, put in pot on stove, add can of chicken broth if needed, and add rice. Heat at medium until simmering, then turn down, cover, and simmer for about 3/4 hour. [***] for additional flavor, put shrimp shells in 1 cup water/chicken broth and simmer on stove till pink. Discard shells and add broth to crock pot.

JON'S EASY SHRIMP JAMBALAYA



JON'S EASY SHRIMP JAMBALAYA image

Categories     Pork     Shellfish     Low Fat

Yield [should serve 8 or more - but depends on appetite

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients
2-3 14oz. cans chicken broth[I prefer Health Valley low fat - great flavor and 6gm protein per
serving]
2 16oz can/jar medium salsa[or hot, depending on taste]
1 medium onion
2 celery stalks optional
2# shrimp 31-40 count fresh/frozen unpeeled [adds more flavor than pre cooked]
1# Andouille Sausage [I use Aidells - the sausage is made from chunks of meat instead
of ground, which provides a more complex texture]
12-16oz long grain/wild rice
2-4 tbsp Olive Oil
optionals: cayenne pepper, Worchestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Put shrimp into warm water to thaw Dump chicken broth and salsa into crock pot, high heat Cut Andouille sausage in half lengthwise, then slice in 1/4 inch pieces so shrimp & sausage about the same size Chop onion and celery In skillet, medium high heat, add olive oil, brown Andouille sausage, then dump into crock pot, saving oil Lightly saute onion and celery, then dump into crock pot. Turn crock pot to low, will take about 2 hours to be simmering throughout. In the meantime peel shrimp, divide in half, and dump into crock pot once pot has been simmering as above; let simmer for additional 15 minutes RICE You can add rice directly to crock pot - makes thicker jambalaya, may need to add additional chicken broth. I prefer the following: When shrimp have turned white, take 2 cups of broth from crock pot, put in pot on stove, add can of chicken broth, and add rice. Heat at medium until simmering, then turn down, cover, and simmer for about 3/4 hour or until done.
