Recipe Summary Jen's Jambalaya

My family loves a lot of flavor and spice in our food and jambalaya delivers. This is my version of a New Orleans jambalaya that's got a nice kick to it but not overly hot for those whose tongues can't handle it.

Ingredients | Creamy Chicken And Shrimp Recipes

2 tablespoons margarine or butter

¼ cup chopped onion

⅓ cup chopped celery

¼ cup chopped green pepper

1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes

1 ½ cups chicken broth

⅔ cup long grain white rice

1 teaspoon dried basil

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon hot sauce

1 bay leaf

⅔ cup diced cooked chicken breast

⅔ cup cooked crumbled Italian sausage

⅔ cup peeled cooked shrimp

Directions

Melt margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion, celery, and green pepper; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and rice; season with basil, garlic, pepper, hot sauce, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then turn heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is done, about 20 minutes.

Once the rice has cooked, stir in chicken, sausage, and shrimp. Simmer for a few minutes until heated through. Remove bay leaf before serving.
