This recipe is my variation of the southern classic. Many things can be substituted, such as protein, peppers, and/or whatever carbs that you choose to have with it. Many recipes call for shrimp, but I prefer spicy Italian sausage. I also prefer to serve this dish over super green pasta instead of rice.
INGREDIENTS:
2lbs of spicy Italian sausage (or any protein)
1 bunch of celery, cleaned and chopped)
3 sweet peppers
2 cans of diced tomatoes
2 cups vegetable broth (homemade is best)
2 tablespoons of hot sauce
1 tablespoon of dried chillies
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a frying pan, cook and brown your sausage or protein. While that is browning, in a large stock pot and on medium heat, add the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, celery, hot sauce and chillies.
2. Once protein is finished cooking, slice it into bite-sized pieces and add it to the stock pot. Simmer the ingredients for 1 hour on low heat, stirring occasionally. Serve with rice, pasta or carb of your choice.
I hope you enjoy my jambalaya recipe. This was introduced to me by my boyfriend, who spent many years in Louisiana, so needless to say his version has much more heat.
