Chicken, Shrimp and Andouille Jambalaya
This recipe calls for andouille sausage, but I find that too spicy. I substitute a milder smoked sausage, commercial kielbasa, or even sweet Italian sausage. You can always have the hot sauce ready to splash on, for those that prefer some heat. Serve with some crusty french bread, a nice crisp salad, and some of your favorite wine. :)
