Jambalaya is my favourite Cajun food. It's simple to make and has a distinct taste you'll love and won't get enough of!
What you need:
1 cup of brown rice
4 cups of chicken broth
2 stalks of celery, chopped by 1/4"
1/2 chopped green pepper
2 stems of green onion
3/4 cup diced tomatoes
3 Italian sausages, or 2 andouille sausages (sliced)
about 15 shell-less shrimps
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
3/4 tablespoon cumin
1/2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon butter
How to cook:
In a small pot or saucepan, cook rice in 2 1/2 cups of chicken broth. Add along a few tomatoes. When finished, set to side.
Melt butter in a stock pot on medium heat. Fry sausages in butter until brown, continually flip so they are cook on both ends. Add cayenne pepper, paprika, and cumin and fry for another 5 minutes.
Add celery, onions, tomatoes, and peppers. Cook until tomatoes are melted into a sauce.
Add rice, 1 cup of broth, and shrimps, cook until all the veggies are soft. If it gets too dry, add broth.
