1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced
1 onion, finely sliced
2 celery ribs, finely sliced diagonally
2 garlic cloves, crushed

Steps:

  • Cook the chorizo in a wide, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.

This jambalaya was a complete disaster. The rice was burnt and the shrimp and chorizo were rubbery.

I would not recommend this jambalaya recipe. The flavors were bland and the rice was undercooked.

This jambalaya was okay, but I've had better. The shrimp and chorizo were a little overcooked and the rice was a little dry.

The rice in this jambalaya was a little mushy for my taste, but the shrimp and chorizo were cooked perfectly.

This jambalaya was a little too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
