New Orleans Jambalaya

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:

1. 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.
2. 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. 
3. Add celery, onions, tomatoes, and peppers. Cook until tomatoes are melted into a sauce. 
4. Add rice, 1 cup of broth, and shrimps, cook until all the veggies are soft. If it gets too dry, add broth.
5. Serves 4. Eat and Enjoy!
