The dish turned out very tasty. I did modify a few things. I used bone broth instead of water. I used German sausage instead of andoullie. I added some chopped zucchini to the onion saute. It turned out really yummy, and i had a tough time not going back for seconds!
I took a little from everyone. I did onion peppers and celery. The sausage and i put some left over rotisserie chicken. In my water I mixed chicken base in for more flavor. Close as I have had since visiting New Orleans.
We loved this! Gives a nice hot kick to the flavor! We like to fill our recipe with meat so I added 1 cups chicken, 1 large can of tuna, 1 can of crabmeat, 1 can of oysters (NOT the smoked ones) & 12 ounces of shrimp to the mix. I only used one large box of Zatarain’s since there’s just the 2 of us eating it. Thank you!
I use bell pepper and onion browned in marg. Empty skillet and brown the andou. sausage which is cut in half lengthwise, then sliced thin. (more per square inch in distribution. ) Then add water and rice w/ some extra spices that you list on the side to accommodate the additives. I served it to a gentleman who likes spicy and interesting food. He said GREAT like Tony the Tiger!
Hubby & I love this fast go to dish. I added my own 2cents . I sautéed sausage , rotel tomato’s & minced garlic until brown . Then, put the dry packet into pot with other ingredients & sautéed the dry packet for about 4 minutes . After, put chicken broth instead of water . It was delicious!
Yummy! All the kids loved it which is surprising!
Turned out perfect! A really tasty variation on an already great product!
No changes – turned out great. Thanks!
I have made jambalaya from scratch and there is no noticeable difference. To this recipe, I cooked chopped up celery as well as onions. I added shrimp the last five minutes so it had shrimp and sausage. You could easily add chicken as well.
This was awesome have made it twice. I have used both andouille sausage with shrimp and chicken – I like the shrimp better. Both times I made this dish I have only used 1 box of rice. I let the dish simmer on the stove a bit longer to reduce the fluid but it was good for 4 people.
Easy to make and full of flavor!
Looks great, easy to make, and extremely delicious…
Decent flavor, but not out of this world 5 star. I used turkey (kielbasa) sausage and the flavor was great. Green chilis were a bit much for us. Next time will skip adding those. Good for leftover lunch for work.
Awesome! I added chopped cabbage and pineapple and it was amazing!
I added all of the ingredients sausage and shrimp I cooked my shrimp separately don’t like shrimp juice and added it last however I mixed my total with onions and sausage then added toe rice. Came out delicious.
Turned out excellent, just enough to keep it simple yet more flavorful than the base.
Definitely delicious! Added some cilantro, cayenne seasoning, and potatoes!
This recipe is a keeper. I did not use 48 oz. of andouille, I split the 48 ounces between chicken, ham and shrimp and andouille. Delighted. I browned the chicken in olive oil and butter, removed it and then added andouille and ham and onion in the remaining oil to saute. Added the cooked chicken. Then followed the recipe. Shrimp was added at the end. However, I had to cook it one hour for my desired consistencey. Low and Slow! Great. Rotel made it really special.
I made this for my family for Christmas just to add some spice to our traditional side dishes. They loved it and think I’m a N’Awlin’s pro now. They’re asking me to make gumbo!! LOL. Thx for the recipe.
I had the family sized package, so followed the liquid instructions for that, but did everything else the same. Very delicious and spicy…which is how we like it.
Its just me an my boyfriend so i made one box of the jambalaya rice. Sauteed onion smoked sausage and one chicken breast and then added the rice and the Rotel an had black beans on the sides awesome meal!!
