Who else loves flavor-packed Cajun food? And PS – Don't forget the creamy Cajun chicken recipe on my website as well. I think you'll love that one as well! 🙂 xo – Lisa
The only thing I would change is instead of tomatoes add salsa and I would add about 6oz white wine.
Louisiana cooking is so regional!…. One small town away?…. And you are not cooking ‘Cajun!’…. Crazy style!…. 💯
This is the FIRST jambalaya recipe that shows about avoiding mushy rice. You nailed it! Thanks for this important tip.
Jambalaya is a descendant of the African dish Joloff rice brought to the Americas by enslaved Africans from the rice coast of Senegambia (only origin of rice on that continent). Rice is not native to Spain, it arrived with the Moors. Without the knowledge of growing and cooking rice there would be no Spanish Paella. What continent did the moors come from? Africa.
Saving time to cook soup, which is too important to me. Won't burn from forgetting to turn off the stove ，so it's very safe. Highly recommended!
If I'm using regular long grain white rice how long should that cook for?
How many people will this serve? It looks great!!
Looks like a very tasty dish but a traditional Jambalaya does not have tomatoes in it or shrimp. Jambalaya also has no celery, but everything has variations and like I said your dish probably tastes very good.
You're HOT!!!!
Ok, so let me start with – I am NOT a hater. Just a couple of thoughts. If no andouille sausage then I am suggesting smoked kiebasa, but definitely not chorizo. Chorizo has enough salt to knock over a horse and it WILL screw up your dish. There are plenty of other smoked sausage items.
I have no problem with people making it their own but at least try to make the original – then – make adjustments. Long grain white rice – yes, Basmati – no, It doesn't really work here. It's about the taste and feel, Basmati is a weak rice for this dish. 😋
I am definitely going to try this!!!!
If she leaves the tails on the shrimp, IT’S OK!!!!! She probably did it for presentation. Lol😂
😅
the food looks delicious .. great information
This was great! Ty!
Can I just use pre cooked shrimp?
So, its ok to use porcelain coated dutch oven on stove top? I've never done that before
I make something very similar. I don’t know or care what it’s called (Jambalaya? Gumbo?) or about regional correctness, but mine is delicious. I like it a lot looser. I add more canned tomatoes, more liquid (water works fine). I’d seen some recipes that included okra, but I use zucchini instead; cut in quarters lengthwise and then cut crosswise into 1/2 inch pieces. I simply cook the rice separately. I’m not a fan of dealing with shrimp tails when eating so I remove them before cooking the shrimp!
This is Emeril’s cajun seasoning recipe
I like the fact that you use organic products.
Can’t wait to make this sometime!
Remove the damn tails from the shrimp.
❤❤❤❤
This was good, I subbed the rice for riced cauliflower to keep it low carb….yeah not as good as real rice, but still very yummy considering my restrictions. Thank you!
