This recipe is very good. I agree with the other reviewers who said that there needs to be some extra spices. I added fresh oregano, fresh thyme,paprika, cracked pepper, sea salt, and parsley. Just for fun, I used one red bell pepper along with two green; the slight sweetness of the red was complementary to the jambalaya. I recommend using the whole chicken because, along with the sausage, it creates a very good stock in which to cook the rest of the ingredients. It was a very easy recipe to make, and I love how you do not have to be exact with the measurements when cooking dishes like this.

HUBBY says: "Spice it up!" He ate a whole breast, leg, and wing, but apparently there was not enough garlic and pepper for him. HUBBY said "This would be great with cajun seasoning!" This would be a great recipe for someone with a part-time job who likes to try to do new things with poultry. Follow the time and temperature directions; if you do your chicken will be very moist. I used chicken stock instead of wine or broth, and the meat was extra savory. Prep rating: ***** Super easy! Cooking method: ***** You can't go wrong with a roasted bird. I watched an episode of LOST while it cooked. So simple. Taste: **** It could be spicier. Clean-up: *** Few dishes to wash, but cleaning a roasting pan is never fun. I will make this again, but with more PEPPER!
