Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 Tbsp olive oil ((or oil of choice))
1 medium onion, (chopped)
2 large stalks celery, (chopped)
1 medium bell pepper ((any color, but I used red))
4 Tbsp garlic, (minced)
1 pound chicken breast, (cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
9-10 ounces sausage, ((link type) cut into bite-size medallions (andouille or any sausage of choice))
1 tsp cayenne pepper ((more or less to taste))
2 tsp paprika ((more or less to taste))
salt (to taste)
black pepper (to taste)
1 tsp thyme (, dry )
1 Tbsp oregano (, dry)
1 Tbsp basil (, dry)
1 can crushed tomatoes, (undrained (28 ounces))
3 cups chicken broth ((or stock))
1 cup rice, (uncooked (I used Lundberg Jubilee, a wild mixed rice))
½ pound shrimp (medium size, tail on or off, raw or cooked)

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



One-Pot Jambalaya image

This is an easy jambalaya recipe that I've been making for a long time. Many recipes call for serving the "sauce" over the rice, but I cook everything all together. (As long as your heat isn't too high, there should be enough liquid to cook the rice without making it gummy.) Enjoy!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup chopped bell pepper (red and or or green)
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 jalapenos (or red chiles, seeded and chopped)
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon dried parsley
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon smoked hot paprika (or more to taste) (optional)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon grill seasoning
1 teaspoon sugar
salt and pepper
1 lb andouille sausage, sliced
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast (or thighs)
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
3 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 cups white rice (uncooked)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat 1 T olive oil and add the sliced sausage and 1/2 of the grill seasoning. Saute on medium-high until the sausage gets some color on it, then remove it and set it aside. Add in the chicken (adding more oil if necessary) and the rest of the grill seasoning and saute until the chicken is browned but not cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
  • Add the butter and a bit more olive oil to the pot and mix in the peppers, onions, celery and jalapenos. Saute on medium heat until the vegetables are softened, about 8 minutes. Add in the garlic and saute for an additional 2 minutes. Stir in the cayenne, paprika, and red pepper flakes and saute for an additional minute to toast the spices.
  • Stir in the crushed tomatoes and chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the thyme, basil, parsley, oregano, and sugar. Simmer, partially-covered, over low heat for 20 minutes.
  • Return the sausage and chicken to the pot. Stir in the rice. Cook for an additional 20 - 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as desired.
