FINALLYWROTEITDOWN CHICKEN, SAUSAGE AND SHRIMP JAMBALAYA



Finallywroteitdown Chicken, Sausage and Shrimp Jambalaya image

I've been making a kind of freestyle jambalaya for years; as the title says, I've finally written down a basic recipe for my creation. But don't let it end here; jambalaya is a dish that you can truly play around with. You could also add bell pepper at the point where you cook the onions and garlic (part of the holy Cajun trinity but I don't like cooked green pepper so I sacreligiously omit it); or use andouille sausage or add cubed pork or ham to the dish. My only real contingency is that you don't use beef, though... no place for that in jambalaya, IMHO. And as much as I love tomatoes, I do not care for them in my jambalaya, either.

3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • Add the uncooked rice and cook, stirring briskly, until just starting to turn golden, then add the chicken broth and Worcestershire Sauce, stirring to combine with the rice-sausage-onion-garlic mixture.

CREOLE-STYLE RED JAMBALAYA WITH CHICKEN, SAUSAGE, AND SHRIMP



Creole-Style Red Jambalaya With Chicken, Sausage, and Shrimp image

Number Of Ingredients 18

14 ounces peeled whole tomatoes
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1/2 pound chicken
1/2 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 pound cooked cajun or creole sausage
1/2 medium yellow onion, diced`
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 celery ribs, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 dash cayenne
1 dash garlic powder
2 bay leaves
1/2 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 scallions, sliced

Steps:

  • Strain tomatoes and add juice to a 4-cup measuring cup. Place tomatoes in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, carefully tear each tomato open to release the liquid inside its seed compartments. Strain all this liquid into measuring cup. Crush tomatoes well with your hands. Add enough chicken stock to tomato juices to total 4 cups (960ml). Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Season chicken all over with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add chicken and cook, turning, until browned on both sides, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes, then cut into 1/2-inch chunks and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, add sausage to Dutch oven and cook, stirring often, until just starting to darken, about 3 minutes; lower heat and/or add oil at any point to prevent burning. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic and cook, stirring and scraping bottom of Dutch oven, until browned bits have come loose and vegetables just begin to turn lightly golden, about 8 minutes.
  • Stir in tomato paste and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add hot sauce, thyme, oregano, cayenne, garlic powder, and a very generous dose of black pepper. Add crushed tomatoes, tomato/stock mixture, diced chicken, and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Season with salt, tasting liquid to ensure it is well seasoned.
  • Cover with lid and transfer to oven. Bake until liquid is fully absorbed and rice is tender, about 40 minutes.
  • Gently stir in shrimp and scallions and return to oven until shrimp are just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Cover pot and let rest 15 minutes. Remove bay leaves, if desired (see note).

CHICKEN, SAUSAGE & SHRIMP JAMBALAYA RECIPE - (4/5)



Chicken, Sausage & Shrimp Jambalaya Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by á-382

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 pound bacon, diced
1 pound andouille sausage diced, or dried chorizo sausage
4 boneless, chicken thighs or 2 breasts, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 yellow onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 jalapeno, diced
5 cloves ,minced
4 cups cooked rice
1-1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, minced
2 dried bay leaves
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 to 3 cups chicken stock
2 pounds shrimp peeled and deveined

Steps:

  • In a large pot or dutch oven, over medium heat, render the bacon. Set on paper towels to drain. Remove excess grease, leaving 2 tablespoons in pan. Add andouille sausages to pan & cook until browned. Take out & drain on paper towels. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned. Remove all the meat to a bowl. Add the onions and cook for about 15 minutes, until beginning to caramelize. Add the bell peppers, jalapenos and garlic to the pot and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the meat back to the pot. Stir in the rice, thyme, bay leaves, paprika, cayenne, one teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until spices are evenly distributed. Turn the heat up to medium high and add the crushed tomatoes and chicken broth. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper and stir into the rice. Put the lid back on the pot, turn off the heat, and leave to sit for another 10 minutes. The heat inside the pot will cook the shrimp. Remove the lid, fluff with a fork, and serve

Tips:

  • Use good quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your jambalaya. Look for plump shrimp, juicy chicken sausage, and flavorful vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the jambalaya, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly and will make the jambalaya mushy.
  • Cook the rice until it's tender but not mushy: The rice in the jambalaya should be cooked until it's tender but not mushy. This will give the jambalaya a nice, chewy texture.
  • Add the shrimp at the end of cooking: The shrimp in the jambalaya should be added at the end of cooking. This will help prevent them from overcooking and becoming tough.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season the jambalaya to taste. This may include adding additional salt, pepper, or cayenne pepper.

Conclusion:

Jambalaya is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken or shrimp, and it can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like it spicy or mild, with or without vegetables, jambalaya is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give jambalaya a try.
