Jambalaya (adapted from Gimme Some Oven and The Ultimate Southern Living Cookbook)


Ingredients: Olive oil 2 pounds kielbasa sausage links, cut into ½ inch slices 4 large chicken breasts 3 bell peppers (pick your favorite color), chopped 4 celery stalks, chopped 2 yellow onions, finely chopped Cajun or Creole seasoning (even though these are not the same thing), such as Tony’s Chachere’s or Slap Ya Mama 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes 3 cups rice Chicken broth, if needed Serve with: Salad, optional Sweet tea Your favorite dessert such as chocolate mousse or apple pie


Directions:

1. Splash some olive oil in your pan. Sauté sausage until browned and crispy; transfer to a plate. Add chopped vegetables to pan and sauté. While they sauté, poach the chicken. I use my Ninja foodie to quickly pressure cook the chicken to keep it tender. Finely chop cooked chicken. Add meats to veggies in pan and sprinkle liberally with seasoning. Cook rice (also use Ninja pressure cooker). Add crushed tomatoes to veggies and meat, stir, and add cooked rice. If it looks dry add a splash of chicken broth, otherwise check seasonings and enjoy!

2. Cooking it separately this way allows you to adjust quantities easily. Just add more of something!

Sunwin20 mình vào thử cho biết thôi vì thấy mọi người nhắc hoài, kiểu tò mò xem giao diện ra sao. Vừa mở lên là thấy trang làm khá thoáng, chia từng khối nhìn rõ ràng nên không phải kéo qua kéo lại để tìm thứ mình cần. Mình hay coi bóng đá sát giờ nên để ý phần lịch với kết quả đặt ngay chỗ dễ thấy, lướt nhẹ là gặp, đỡ mất công bấm nhiều. Chữ nhìn ổn, tiêu đề nổi bật vừa đủ, đọc trên điện thoại không bị rối hay dính chữ. Nói chung cảm giác dùng nhanh gọn, nhất là cách họ chia nội dung thành các block riêng với heading rõ ngay trên mỗi…
