Number Of Ingredients 20

1 (28-ounce; 795g) can peeled whole tomatoes, packed in juice (see note)
About 3 cups (720ml) homemade chicken stock or low-sodium store-bought broth, plus more as needed
1 1/4 pounds (565g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon (15ml) vegetable, canola, or other neutral oil, plus more if needed
3/4 pound (340g) cooked Cajun or Creole sausage, such as andouille or chaurice (or other similar smoked or spiced pork sausage), sliced into thin rounds
1 medium yellow onion (8 ounces; 225g), diced
2 medium green bell peppers (10 ounces total; 280g), stemmed, seeded, and diced
4 celery ribs (6 ounces total; 170g), diced
4 medium cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon (5ml) tomato paste
1 tablespoon (15ml) Louisiana-style hot sauce, plus more for serving
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 bay leaves
2 cups long-grain rice (12 ounces; 370g)
3/4 pound (340g) peeled and deveined shrimp
6 scallions, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • 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 rice and return to a simmer. Cover with lid and transfer to oven. Bake until liquid is fully absorbed and rice is tender, about 40 minutes.
  • Serve, passing hot sauce at the table for diners to add to taste.

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.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups cooked chicken (I like a combination of roasted light and dark chicken... with crispy skin)
1 lb peeled deveined raw shrimp
1/2 lb smoked sausage, sliced
2 cups chopped onions
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 bay leaves
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup uncooked rice
2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
salt

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, cook the smoked sausage in the olive oil until browned; add the onion and garlic and saute until golden and transparent.
  • 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.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and add the cooked chicken, thyme, oregano, bay leaves, cayenne pepper, white pepper and black pepper.
  • Cook, covered, over low heat for about 30 to 40 minutes; add more liquid if you need to.
  • Then add the shrimp, cover, and cook for another 10 minutes or until shrimp is pink and cooked through.
  • Season to taste with salt and more pepper if you like.

Tips:

  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to ensure that there is enough space for all of the ingredients.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings to your own taste. If you like things spicy, add more cayenne pepper or hot sauce. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of cayenne pepper or omit it altogether.
  • Serve jambalaya with your favorite sides, such as cornbread, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Jambalaya is a delicious and versatile dish that can be tailored to your own taste. With its combination of shrimp, chicken, sausage, and vegetables, it's a hearty and flavorful meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give jambalaya a try!
