Smoky Sausage Jambalaya

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Fish and Shellfish

This is based on a recipe from Hillshire Farm's website. It's an easy one skillet meal that looks and tastes like you went to a lot of trouble making it.

"Turned out really good. Only I had to mess with the recipe as usual. I made a roux, need a roux for the right color and taste. Then I had to add mace and cloves, for some reason the flavor always seems to be missing something without them. I found the texture a bit mushy, since I think the tomatoes and vegetables also add moisture to the dish, so next time I'll use a cup and a half of rice. " - cooksalot1995

Smoky Sausage Jambalaya Preparation

Melt butter in heavy, large lidded skillet over high heat. Add vegetables and garlic and saute for 5 minutes. Add all of the other ingredients, mix well, and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 25 minutes or until the rice is done. Remove from heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes before fluffing with fork and serving.

Notes

Use turkey sausage to reduce the fat. Use half the amount of Cajun seasoning if you're sensitive to spicy foods.

    This was so easy to prepare! I used hot rotel and quite a few jalapenos. It was hot and we loved it. I will make this again. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

    We really enjoyed this dish! I used smoked turkey keilbasa (next time I'll add shrimp and crabmeat to the sausage). Didnt have jalepenos so I used cayenne red pepper instead and doubled the garlic. This dish had the right amount of heat and flavor! Will definitely make it again!

    Easy, fast and delicious. Only change I made was to cut Cajun spice in half.

    Ange325 - you might also try using the reduced salt chicken broth.

    It's very good, but my only issue is it's a little too salty so next time I might use less Cajun seasoning other than that it was tasty.

    Made this with shrimp added into the mix. It was very delicious.
