Shrimp And Chicken Jambalaya With Andouille Sausage Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a Dutch oven or heavy-gauge pot over high heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Add the bell pepper, onion, celery, and garlic, and season with cayenne pepper and salt and pepper, to taste. Cook stirring, until well browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, shrimp, oysters, and bay leaves. Add the rice, stir gently; then add the stock. Gently move the spoon across the bottom of the pot, to make sure that the rice is not sticking. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer, covered, until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 8 minutes.
• To serve, transfer to a serving bowl, and mix in the green onions. Season with hot sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat a large cast-iron pot over high heat.
• Lower the heat to medium-high and add the sausage and bacon.
• Cook the meat as evenly as possible, stirring slowly, until the fat is released.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper, add it to the pot, and turn the heat to high.
• Once the chicken has browned, add the celery, onions, green pepper, and garlic.
• Continue to stir, allowing the ingredients to brown without burning.
• Lower the heat to medium and stir in the thyme, bay leaf, paprika, cayenne, and rice.
• Keep stirring for 5 to 7 minutes over medium heat.
• Add the tomatoes and broth, raise the heat back to high until the liquid boils, and then cover and reduce to a low simmer for 15 minutes.
• Season the shrimp and crawfish (if using) with salt and pepper, and add them to the pot.
• Keep the pot covered for an additional 5 minutes before removing from the heat and adding the green onions.
• Check for seasonings. Add salt, pepper, and the celery salt.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or black iron pot over medium heat, add the kielbasa and saute for 8 to 10 minutes, until browned. Remove the kielbasa to a bowl, and set aside. Add the ham to the same pot and cook 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove to the bowl with the kielbasa, and set aside. Add the butter, onion, celery and peppers to the same pot and saute for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onion is translucent. Add the tomato, garlic, jalapeno or cayenne, oregano, thyme, and tomato paste and cook until all the vegetables and herbs are blended well. Add the stock and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in the rice, and add the sausage, ham, bay leaves, salt, pepper and hot sauce. Return to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of the scallions, 1/4 cup of the parsley, the lemon juice and the shrimp, and stir well. Cover the pot, remove it from the heat and allow the jambalaya steam, for 15 minutes, before serving.
• Garnish with the remaining 1/4 cup scallions and 1/2 cup parsley, and a dash of hot sauce, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large pan or Dutch oven, brown chicken in hot oil on both sides; remove and drain.
• Add andouille, onion, celery, bell pepper, thyme, oregano, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper to the pan, cooking and stirring for about 5 minutes until onions are tender.
• Add rice, tomatoes with juice, and broth; bring to a boil.
• Place rice mixture in a baking dish or oven-proof casserole; top with chicken; cover (can use foil) and bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until rice and chicken are done and tender.
• Stir in shrimp, parsley, and green onions; cover and cook 5-8 minutes longer or until shrimp curl and turn bright pink and serve.
