Jambalaya Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Chop the bell peppers and onion, mince the garlic, and slice the Andouille sausage.

2. 2

   Sauté the Vegetables and Sausage

   In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic, cooking until they are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the sliced Andouille sausage and continue to sauté for another 5 minutes until browned.

3. 3

   Add Rice and Liquids

   Stir in the long-grain rice and Cajun seasoning, cooking for 1-2 minutes. Add the canned diced tomatoes (with juices) and chicken broth, stirring well. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

4. 4

   Cook the Jambalaya

   Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid.

5. 5

   Add Shrimp

   Once the rice is cooked, stir in the shrimp. Cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

6. 6

   Serve

   Remove from heat, fluff the jambalaya with a fork, and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
