Jambalaya

The latest cajun dish on the menu was a variation of Jambalaya - made with sausage this time. Jambalaya is a highly varied dish, and it also goes well with chicken or shrimp. The fancier versions will have a variety of meats in the dish.

Jambalaya
2 Tbsp. oil
1 1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
16 oz. can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup broth or water
2 cups cooked sausage, chicken, or shrimp
1 cup rice
1/2 tsp. thyme
1/2 tsp. salt
hot sauce to taste

1. Cook onions, garlic, and bell pepper in hot oil until lightly browned. Add meat and rice and cook until rice is coated in oil.
2. Add seasoning, tomatoes, and broth. Cover and simmer until rice is done, about 20-25 minutes.
