Really good. I do cook the rice separate, that way I don't make glue, and you can make it hotter-I do!

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 teaspoons shortening
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1 cup green pepper, finely chopped
1 cup celery, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 chicken, cut into pieces
2 lbs chorizo sausage (or a good reliable hot sausage you know of) or 2 lbs andouille sausages (or a good reliable hot sausage you know of)
3 cups fresh ripe tomatoes, chopped or 2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
2 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 teaspoons thyme
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon parsley
1 teaspoon cayenne (what ever your taste buds can handle) or 1 teaspoon chili powder (what ever your taste buds can handle)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
6 cups cooked long-grain rice
cayenne (to offer at table) or Tabasco sauce (to offer at table)

Steps:

  • Melt shortening in a large/huge saucepan over medium heat.
  • Cook chicken pieces until brown on all sides and cooked about half way through, around 20 minutes or so.
  • Remove and add onion, green pepper, celery and garlic.
  • Cook slowly stirring now and again until onions are tender.
  • Add sausage and cook 10 min more.
  • Return chicken and add all remaining ingredients EXCEPT rice and stir together well.
  • Cover and simmer for 30 min stirring now and again.
  • Remove cover and continue to cook until broth cooks down a bit-you don't want it too thick as the rice will soak up the juice.
  • Serve up the rice in bowls and ladle the Jambalaya on top, and offer more cayenne or Tabasco at the table.
  • ***I know that cooking the rice on the side and not in the dish will cause some to have a heart attack, but I've found the flavor much better this way, IMHO.

This jambalaya was a disappointment. The instructions were unclear and the dish turned out mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

This jambalaya was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland and it wasn't very spicy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
