This was the very first time I've tried Jambalya from scratch! Coming from the south I love my Cajun food. Now that I live in Scotland its hard to come by. My brother in law has never had it before. He had two large helping and took the leftovers home!! I added two large spoonfulls from a can of diced tomatoes with chillis and a packet of extra large prawns. The taste was beautiful. Thank you very very much for this recipe! I will use it this one time and time again!!!!!

This turned out so good! We've never had jambalaya before and we were pleasantly surprised. I'm only giving this 4 stars because I did make some modifications that I read from other reviewers. I added 1 can italian stewed tomatoes w/ juice, cajun seasoning instead of cayenne pepper (I didn't have cayenne), low fat smoked sausage, and about a handfull of medium shrimp (added at the last 10 min.) It took about 1 hr 15 min. for preping and cook time though...A little longer than I was prepared for. I will absolutely make this again!

This was a real good dinner. I used a fill pound of sausage and pretty good sized chicken breasts, so it was nice and meaty. Rice cooked up very moist. I think I would like more vegatables in in next time.

This was very good but it was missing a more rustic taste. Don't know what it is though.

I've been looking for a jambalaya recipe without the seafood, and this was really good. I doubled the chicken and kielbasa, but it isn't necessary. Yummy!

This recipe was alright but something was off about it. I followed it exactly and something didn't taste right. About half way through the bowl my fiance and I both stopped eating. Probably won't be making this again.

I am a big fan of Cajun cooking! I bet that I made this a half a dozen times. Every time I made this it was different every time. Great base like a blank canvas. Very easy and I would recommend to anyone.

Didn't change a single thing and it was great. It was even better the next day and wasn't dried out at all. Definitely a five star in my book!

Mmmmmmmm! This is pretty darn satisfying. I held to the recipe pretty closely except I used Italian sausage instead of kielbasa and added shrimp too. I recommend it.

I make this all the time and everyone loves it. I even made it for my fiance's family. And since it was the first meal that I made for them, I was a little nervous but all of them loved it. I try not to make it too spicy but that's hard since I love spicy foods. Depending on what I have in the pantry, I use brown or white rice. Both are good but the brown has to cook a little longer.

My whole family loves this recipe. I used cut up chicken and shrimp. I left out the peppers, since i am the only one that likes them. Will make again.
