AUTHENTIC JAMBALAYA RECIPE (EASY & HEALTHY JAMBALAYA)

Steps:

• Heat the oil on medium in a large Dutch oven on the stove top.
• Add onion, celery, and bell pepper and cook about 5 minutes.
• Add garlic, basil, oregano, and thyme and stir. Cook for about 5 more minutes.
• Add the chicken and sausage and let brown for 5-10 minutes, stirring often.
• Add cayenne pepper and paprika to the meat mixture and blend lightly.
• Pour in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, and rice and mix. Bring to a light boil, then lower the heat to 1-2 and cover.
• Cook covered on low for 45 minutes, stirring a couple times to make sure the rice isn't sticking to the bottom.
• During the last 5-10 minutes of cooking, add the shrimp to the top of the mixture and cover. Check again after about 5 minutes and flip shrimp over, making sure not to cover it deeply so you can keep an eye on its doneness. Cover and cook 5 more minutes or until shrimp is opaque pink and white.
• Serve right away with a side salad and crusty bread if desired.

ONE POT JAMBALAYA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a crockpot or large, deep saute pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sausage and saute for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sausage is lightly browned. Transfer to a clean plate and set aside.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the crockpot. Add bell peppers, jalapeño, onion and garlic. Sauté for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened.
• Add the diced tomatoes, chicken stock, rice, Cajun seasoning, thyme, cayenne, bay leaf, and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the mixture reaches a simmer. Then reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the rice is nearly cooked through, stirring every 5 minutes or so along the way so that the rice does not burn.
• Add the shrimp, ham, okra, and stir to combine. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through and pink. Stir in the chicken and sausage, and remove and discard the bay leaf.
• Taste season the jambalaya with salt, pepper, and additional Cajun seasoning if needed. Remove from heat and serve warm.
