Shrimp Crawfish And Scallop Jambalaya Recipes

SHRIMP AND CRAWFISH JAMBALAYA

Steps:

• In a very large skillet or pot, lightly brown the sausage in the oil over medium heat.
• Add the onion, celery, green pepper, garlic, thyme, basil , and black pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes.
• Stir in both cans of tomatoes (with their juice), chicken stock , water, and both paprikas. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
• Stir in the rice and transfer the contents of the pot to a large roasting pan lightly coated with cooking spray (a disposable foil roasting pan is fine; be sure to support the underside with a baking sheet when lifting.) Cover with foil and bake at 350 F for 30 minutes.
• Saute the shrimp in the butter until the shrimp are just barely opaque. Stir in the crawfish tails (and any fat) and sauté until the tails are just heated through.
• Stir the shrimp, crawfish tails, and parsley into the jambalaya. Taste and add salt if needed ( celery salt is a good choice.) Re-cover with foil and return the pan to the oven for an additional 7 to 10 minutes if serving immediately. If the jambalaya will be reheated and served at a later time, skip this step.
• Sprinkle with the scallion tops , if desired, and serve.

SHRIMP, SCALLOP AND SAUSAGE JAMBALAYA

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and bell pepper and cook, stirring often, until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a 3 1/2 quart slow cooker.
• Add the tomato juice, clam juice, water, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, oregano, salt, black and cayenne peppers, and break up the tomatoes with the side of a spoon. Cover and slow cook until the rice is barely tender, 5 to 6 hours on low.
• Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, turning often, until browned, about 5 minutes.
• During the last 15 minutes of cooking, stir the sausage, shrimp and scallops into the jambalaya. Increase the heat to high (300°) cover, and cook just until the shellfish are firm. Serve immediately.

JAMBALAYA DELUXE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the chicken and garlic, followed by the sausage links. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is firm enough to slice, about 10 minutes. Slice the sausages into 1/2 inch thick pieces, and return to the pot.
• Puree the stewed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste in batches using a blender. Stir the tomato mixture into the pot along with the shrimp boil. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes. Stir in the clams, mussels, shrimp, and scallops, then simmer 30 minutes longer. Remove from the heat, and allow to stand for 15 minutes.
• While the jambalaya is cooling, bring a large pot of lightly-salted water to a rolling boil; stir in the angel hair pasta and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Serve the jambalaya over the cooked pasta.
