A smokey, spicy, seafood Jambalaya. I made with brown rice because that is what we enjoy, please do use your favorite rice but adjust liquid and cooking times accordingly. Do check out Recipe #477279, it is what gives the smokiness.

This jambalaya is a bit spicy for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.
