YOhio is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Jambalaya

Jambalaya

3 tablespoons veg oil
3 lb chicken (I use breasts, but a cut fryer would work well too)
1 lb smoked sausage or Kielbasa
1 cup chopped bell pepper
1 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
3 cps chicken broth
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
¼ teaspoon thyme
¼ teaspoon Tabasco sauce
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 ½ cup uncooked rice


Throw the chicken into a big pot half full of agua. Bring to a boil then down to a simmer for about 35 minutes. Remove chicken, cool and then shred from bone. Save the broth. Brown the sausage with the oil then remove from the pan, leaving the oil in. Saute' the green pepper, onion, and garlic on low heat for about five minutes. Add the seasonings and broth. Simmer 10 minutes. Add rice and meat. Cover and cook over low heat 25 minutes. Fluff rice with fork and cook 5 minutes longer, or until juices are absorbed by rice.

This is a nice, hearty comfort food. Something to keep you warm as the weather changes. I like to load it with additional hot sauce.

And it reminds me of one of my favorite country songs.

Sounds delicious. It's pretty similar to my chicken cacciatore:

This is used to coat the chicken:

1/2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. paprika

2-3 lbs of chicken breasts that have been sliced into strips

1/4 - 1/3 c. olive oil
2 medium yellow onions, sliced or chopped
1 green pepper, sliced or chopped
4-5 cloves garlic, sliced or crushed
2-3 medium tomatoes, chopped
2-3 celery ribs, sliced
2 8 oz. cans tomato sauce
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. salt

After chicken is coated with the flour mixture, brown in hot oil and add the remaining ingredients. Simmer together until the chicken is done.If needed, use the left-over flour mixture to thicken the sauce.

It's pretty simple to make and like yours, is a nice comfort food when it's cold. You can also put it over pasta.
