I followed the recipe except that I used hot italian sausages and large prawns in place of the shrimp.When I made this I was running out of time and had to get to work so I put it all in the slow cooker and set it to low and cooked it for 9 hours.The end result was a gelatinous mass,quite unappealing.The next time I cook jambalaya I'll use the recipe I found on here called Colleen's Slow Cooker Jambalaya,much better than this.

delicous! I had to use less spice & onion so the tummy could handle it but even my husband who doesn't like shrimp, went back for seconds. This is my first time making Jambalaya. thanks Jenny.. Yum!

This was great. I did do a couple of things different some on purpose and some were and accident but it turned out very spicy and very good! First, I added chorizo on purpose but I used a can of chili tomatoes and a can of stewed (accident) It was so good. I used a bay leaf too for a little something extra in flavor. My hubby hates tomatoes and he loved this and asked me to make some and put it in the freezer so he can heat it up when our baby arrives in June. I left ouot the seafood though. Would love to try that but my hubby is allergic. Thanks again for a great recipe!

I used chorizo sausage with this recipe which I cut into one inch pieces and browned in my cast iron dutch oven. I removed the sausage and quickly sauteed my shrimp which I had already seasoned with Emerils essence. I removed the shrimp just before it was completely done and added my onions, plus scallions and two chopped green bell peppers and cooked until soft. I then added the tomatoes, sausage and rice and simmered until cooked thru. The shrimp went in during the last five minutes of cooking. Delicious and thanks for a great start.

Yum! My husband really loved this. But I used a can of tomatoes with green chiles, and that made it too hot for our 2 and 4 year olds. My 2-year-old loved the shrimp. He kept asking for "more hot dog." (one expensive hot dog, huh?) :)

Very good recipe, though I did make some alterations. I use 2 cans of tomatoes and green chilis (I like my jambalaya with a kick to it)instead of the stewed tomatoes, I use either smoked sausage or kielbasa instead of the sausage links, and I increase the rice to 2 cups with 4 cups of broths (I have a big family). Though I do reduce the hot sauce to 1 teaspoon if it is good quality hot sauce, but if you use generic or "not-so-hot" hot sauce then you can use the full 1 Tablespoon. I also add 1/4 teaspoon cajun seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon thyme if I have it on hand. Chicken breast is optional, good either with or without it.

This was a great recipe. My husband and daughter loved it, even though they were reluctant to try it at first. I used smoked turkey sausage in mine. Thanks for the recipe.

Really tasty! I've made it several times, though I use andouille sausage to add a little kick to it.

Give this recipe a try! It was fast and easy to prepare, and tastes great. We substituted a different type of smoked sausage(really wanted to try andouille in it, but couldn't find any), and left out the onions, but basically we stuck to the plan. It didn't take all night to prepare & the taste really hits the spot. I'll make it again for sure.

Did we have the same recipe? I usually cook great jambalaya's, but nobody in the family liked this as much as my other ones. In fact, they didn't like it at all! This is the first bad review I've ever given!

I've been coming to AllRecipes.com for a couple years now, and while so many recipes are wonderful this is the FIRST time I felt so inclined to return to write a review. The flavor and kick was just what I was looking for in a jambalya receipe. The family can't shovel it in fast enough. Mmmmmm good!!!!
