Smoked Sausage and Shrimp Jambalaya image

My Louisiana-native boyfriend loves this!! Inspired by a combination of recipes, but tweaked to my own tastes, this makes a medium spicy, saucy jambalaya. I used white sushi rice for an extra creamy, almost risotto-like texture. The addition/omission of the hot pepper and amount of hot sauce will determine the heat factor. You can omit the wine and use all stock if you'd like. Delicious with hot garlic bread!
