Ragnarok's Jambalaya

Avg. cook time: 65 min.

Serves; 4-6 people


1 5gal pot

*Short grain brown rice
*salt
*black pepper
*cayenne pepper powder
*paprika
*chilli powder
(*) or if preffered, use 3 boxes of Zataran's jambalaya rice mixes or anything equivilent to it.

2 lbs (1kg) Andoile sausage
2 lbs (1kg) Chorizo ; a spicy sausage
1 lb (0.44kg) Shrimp, tails off
1 lb (0.44 kg) Celery, washed and choped into 1cm pieces
3-5 Green Bell Peppers washed and cut into 4cm strips
1 whole red onion diced
.5 gal crushed Red Tomatoes
8 Red Tomatoes diced
Roux (optional)

1. Pour 1/2 a gallon of water into the 5 gal. pan and bring to a boil on high flame.

2. put in the rice and seasonings (Rice mix if it the Zataran's, ECT). Stir to avoid the rice from burning on the bottom at regular intervals

3. prepare vegtables, sausage, and tomatoes (rushed and dices) and add to the pot, reduce heat to a medium low flame and let simmer. Continue to stir contents at regular intervals to avoid contents from burning on the bottom.

4. Add shrimp. If uncooked shrimp, cook it until it is white with red veins around it. If pre-cooked, cook lightly to avoid shrikage. Stir shrimp into contents to cook evenly with the rest of the contents. Check shrimp by touching it with cleaned hand. if shrimp is hot to the touch, remove pot from stove, and serve.

Note; can be use in smaller ingredient size to stuff large poultry with. Liquid from jambalaya can be used as a gravy also by adding flour and corn starch.

Enjoy

Personal favorite; Seasoned chicken milanesas (breaded chicken with seasoning)
Ingredients: 1 egg
2 chicken breasts
Can of season all seasoning
Bread crumbs
Slice chicken breasts to a relatively thin thickness (I usually cut three slices from one breast), Season chicken slices with season-all (It's salt, paprika and some other ****)
Soak chicken slices in egg and place chicken in a bowl with bread crumbs, fry after the chicken is evenly coated with crumbs for about 7 minutes each side on a skillet
And serve with tortillas

for added Mexican feel add beans and avocados to your desire!
its a simple meal and I cook it almost every other day.
