A spicy one-pot rice dish from the American South with chicken, smoked sausage, pepper and celery, seasoned with Cajun spice. Topped with quickly fried garlic prawns.
Method
Chicken
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a wide pan and brown the chicken on all sides for approx. 4 mins.
Vegetables
Reduce the heat. Add the onion, garlic and Cajun seasoning and sweat for approx. 2 mins. Add the pepper and celery and sweat for approx. 3 mins.
Rice
Add the rice and sweat for approx. 1 min. Stir in the tomato purée, tomatoes and sausage. Pour in the water and stock, season with salt and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer over a low heat for approx. 20 mins until the rice is cooked and the liquid has been absorbed.
Prawns
Heat the oil in a frying pan. Lightly season the prawns and fry for approx. 2 mins, add the garlic and fry briefly.
To serve
Stir the spring onion and parsley into the jambalaya, cover and leave to stand for approx. 2 mins. Serve the jambalaya with the prawns on top.
- Tip:
- Don't lift the lid while simmering, so the rice cooks evenly.
- Variation:
- Use spicy chorizo instead of smoked sausage.
- Serve with:
- A green salad and a few dashes of hot sauce.
