CHEF JOHN'S SAUSAGE & SHRIMP JAMBALAYA
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.

CHICKEN AND ITALIAN SAUSAGE JAMBALAYA

Steps:
- Heat the oil on medium in a large skillet. Cook chicken through, about 5 minutes and remove from pan. Add more oil if needed and add sausage and cook through. Remove from pan.
- If needed, add a bit more oil and add diced onion, pepper and celery to pan and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the veggies begin to soften. Add garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes. At this point, I deglaze the pan with the white wine. If you chose not to use the wine pour a bit of the chicken stock in and get all the bits of sausage and browned goodness off the bottom of the pan.
- Return the meats to the skillet and stir. Add the rice, chicken broth and Tony's. Also add salt and pepper. Amount of salt will depend on the amount of Tony's and the amount of salt in the broth. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to simmer and cook for 18-20 minutes. Stir to mix all ingredients well.
- I serve with salad and crescent rolls.
Tips:
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven so there's plenty of room for all the ingredients.
- Brown the sausage and chicken in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Don't skip toasting the rice; this step helps develop its flavor and prevents it from becoming mushy.
- Use a good quality chicken broth for the best flavor.
- Add the vegetables to the pot in order of how long they take to cook, starting with the onions and bell peppers and ending with the tomatoes.
- Season the jambalaya to taste with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper.
- Serve the jambalaya immediately over rice.
Conclusion:
This Italian sausage jambalaya is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's packed with flavor from the sausage, chicken, and vegetables, and the rice soaks up all the delicious sauce. Serve it with a side of cornbread or salad for a complete meal.
