OK recipe if you're not from the South like I am. It's definitely bland and not hot and spicy like the real thing. Also, I'd use Andouille sausage and leave out carrots. I've never heard of carrots in a Jambalays before! More onions, garlic and real Cajun seasoning...like Tony's!

This was great! I recommend this recipe and will make it again myself very soon! Had it with a bowl of grated cheddar, hot sauce and a nice cold beer.

too bland. Fresh garlic, chili powder, worchesteshire, and hot sauce give this recipe a little more taste.

Entire family, including 12-year-old son and 8-year-old daughter cleaned their plate. My wife and I had two helpings. Sized recipe for 6 servings and there was plenty left over. Took others suggestions and cut broth back to 2-1/2 cups from 3, added a can of diced tomatoes including juice, added 3 large cloves of garlic (minced), added 1/2-lb. small/medium frozen shrimp (last 10 minutes), substituted turkey kielbasa for smoked sausage, and substituted chopped baby bella mushrooms for canned. Sauteed bell pepper, onion, carrots (chopped), celery, mushrooms, & garlic until onions were soft. Added kielbasa and tomotoes after chicken was browned/cooked mostly through. A definite keeper in our family. Very rare when all agree the food was good. Thanks everyone for the great suggestions.

This recipe tastes fine, but it is very far from any recipe I have ever used to make traditional cajun jambalaya. I'm originally from Lafayette, La in the heart of cajun country so I have eaten Jambalaya my entire life. It tastes good, but it isn't jambalaya.

One of our household favorites because it is a one dish meal (no dishwasher) and is ready in under an hour from start to finish. And it is pretty healthy when I sub my favorite turkey sausage! The only change we make is to adjust proportions (1 can chicken broth, 1 c. rice, two carrots, two celery, 2 chicken breast halves, 1/2. turkey sausage loop, whole small onion, half green pepper) and we add a 16 oz. can of diced tomatoes with the rice. May not really be Jambalaya, but it is totally tasty and satisfying on a cold night!

I read the reviews yesterday and thought that the recipe was simple enough so I tried it last night. I'm pretty sure it took me more than 15 minutes of prep time, but I agree with the other reviews that this meal went over well with my husband and kids. I did follow other reviewers' leads and made my own adjustments, chopping the carrots instead of slicing and sauteing them with the green peppers, celery, onion, and of course lots of garlic. Then I added the chicken. I too added a can of diced tomatoes with the juice, cutting back on the broth. I tend to like things a little more seasoned and spicy, so next time I think I would add a tablespoon of cajun seasoning after adding the chicken and use andouille sausage instead of smoked. But all in all with some steamed broccoli on the side, it was a pretty good meal.

We love this recipe! It has become a weekly favorite in our home. I leave out the mushrooms and carrots, but keep everything else the same. I think the key is the chicken broth - it gives it a wonderful depth of flavor!

Totally yummy. If you're short on time (or just lazy like me), use a prepackaged seasoned rice mix and throw it in, making sure to cut back a bit on the cayenne. I added some beans and changed to kielbasa, threw in some cornbread on the side and I was in heaven. Even the picky eater in the family enjoyed.

Instead of regular sausage I used beef summer sausage... the flavors were excellent! I also added a can of Mexican tomatoes, as it seemed like it needed something extra. In doing so, I cut back on the stock by about half a cup, as I just threw in the tomatoes with their juice.

Although this was very tastey, it did not remind me of the Jambalaya I have had down south. I spruced it up a bit and added Talpia fish, but ommited the sausage(we dont eat read meat. I used an array of spices from chili powder to carribean jerk seasoning. I also added sweet corn, okra, and diced tomatoes. It was definitly delicious, and I think it's a great recipe for first timers with Jambalya and families that don't really like spicey food.

This came out delicious. Only change I made is adding an extra cup of rice. I didn't have any mushrooms on hand so I didn't add those, but I definitely will be next time.
