Yum! I didn't have all the ingredients on hand and it still turned out delicious. I'll have to make it again and follow the recipe more closely.

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.

Good Jambalaya, but it could have used some cajun spices. It needed something else.

Tasty dish. I didn't have any green peppers so I used red and yellow...this added a sweeter flavor than I was going for so I will try the green next time. I added a handful of shrimp at the end. The dish could use a bit more salt, depending on your taste. Will definitely make this again!

I made this recipe almost exactly how it was written except I used 2 lbs. of boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of a whole chicken and I also added 1/2 lb. of cooked shrimp. It was good, but in my opinion the tomato taste was a bit overpowering. It had a really sweet taste to it which Im sure is from the tomatoes. Next time I will omit the tomato paste and 1 can of the diced tomatoes and replace it with some of the reserved chicken broth. Very good basic recipe though, and just enough spiciness!

I made this for my family on Fat Tuesday. Since we were short on time during that busy weeknight, I made the rice separately, which significatly reduced the cooking time. It was delicious and we will make this dish again.

This was good but just didn't wow me. I made just as is written and be very prepared for spicy. I like spicy but some of my Super Bowl guests were not as high on it. It was just too spicy for some. Have some cold, cold beer ready to quench the fire!

Good stuff. Use some Tasso Ham and Andouille Sausage instead of the smoked sausage if you can get your hands on it.

Delicious flavor, but I simmered for over an hour and could NOT get the rice cooked thoroughly. I loved it anyway, but next time I'm going to make the rice separately until just cooked, then simmer in the Jambalaya for a while for flavor.

Fantastic recipe. I never tried to make this before and it was easier than I thought but it did take me longer than what the recipe stated so keep that in mind.

This recipe does taste good, but it doesn't really have the "jambalaya" flavor I was looking for. Instead, it seems to taste more like a cross between chili (chicken version) and spanish rice.

This is a really great recipe. It does take longer to cook the rice than the recipe dictates. Amazing, cost effective recipe that is delicious.

This is, hands down, the best jambalaya recipe I've made. I have been making this one for a few months now (just realized I never reviewed it). It is WELL worth the time it takes to prepare. I never measure my spices and this dish allows me to do just that. I sometimes add in more rice, counter that with more fresh stock. More cajun seasoning, less cayenne, whatever we are in the mood for that day. It is also a relatively cheap meal if you consider how much food it makes (again, sometimes using more rice than called for). Leftovers are fantastic with a little broth splashed in while reheating. Pair this with some cornbread and you've got some full kids with warm bellies. :-)

the recipe was a great dinner for a small crowd. I cooked the chicken in the oven for some added quickness and then added an Anaheim pepper for a little kick>

This recipe was good, but there were some things I would have liked to change. First off, I only used 1 can of tomatos plus the tomato paste and it was STILL way to tomatoey. The rice took much longer than 20 minutes to cook as well just as a heads up. Overall, it was still good. I added some okra and it was delicious

Nice recipe! Only a few recommendations. I used a rotisserie chicken to save time and add flavor, which turned out well. I also added 1/2 lb of frozen already cooked shrimp. If you wish to spend a little more I would recommend fresh shrimp as mine got a little tough once it was time to reheat it for leftovers.

This recipe was super delicious! The only thing I had problems with were some parts of the recipe which weren't noted (don't use the all the liquid from the can of tomatoes, cover the pot after the rice is added to cook, and it definitely took WAY more than 20 minutes to cook the rice). The rice was definitely the most troublesome part,...I think it would have been much better off to make separately and just add it in afterwards to combine. Rice will still get all the flavor. Added more cayanne, pepper, salt and a bit of cumin as well. Overall, excellent starter recipe!
