OUR BEST JAMBALAYA RECIPE | SOUTHERN LIVING



Our Best Jambalaya Recipe | Southern Living image

According to the dictionary, jambalaya is "rice cooked usually with ham, sausage, chicken, shrimp, or oysters and seasoned with herbs." In talking with lovers of authentic Creole food, this statement is as close as you will get to having people agree on what jambalaya really is.Opinions differ on how to cook a proper jambalaya, just as they differ on how to cook a gumbo or whether you should put sugar in your cornbread. Everyone will agree, however, that this jambalaya recipe, which is ready in just an hour, is delicious and easy enough to earn a spot in the recipe box. Fry up some flavorful andouille sausage to start the dish off right, followed by the aromatic trinity of onion, celery and pepper. This recipe uses shredded, cooked chicken, but feel free to substitute some leftover Thanksgiving turkey, instead. If you are having company over the holidays, take some of the meal-planning stress off your shoulders; simply make a pan of this ahead and freeze. Reheat it and serve with a warm loaf of crusty bread for a delicious and hearty meal.

  • "In a cast iron pot, brown the chicken sprinkled with Creole Seasoning then remove from pot and set aside. Brown pork until most of water has left pot and starting to barely stick to pot and brown really good(about 30-40 minutes). Add sausage to the pork and cook on medium heat for about 15 minutes stirring often. Next add all vegetables and dash of hot sauce. Let cook down on medium heat while carefully stirring to prevent sticking. Vegetables will make extra water so don't be alarmed. When vegetables are cooked down and wilted, add water and return chicken to the pot with everything else. Next add the rest of the seasonings and return to a boil over medium high heat. Remember that pasta will absorb the seasonings, so make sure the water tastes just a little more salty and peppery than you would like. After water comes to a boil, break pasta in half and sprinkle into mixture. Be careful pasta does not stick and clump together. When all of the pasta has softened and absorbed most of the water, lower heat to medium low and add green onions. Stir carefully and place lid on pot for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, lift lid and stir pot completely then replace lid. Lower heat to very, very low and cook covered for 15 more minutes. After 15 minutes, turn the heat off. DO NOT REMOVE LID!!! Let it sit for about 30 minutes. After this, lift the lid, stir the pot over, and enjoy your dish."
