Spicy Jambalaya Rice

Spicy Jambalaya Rice

I know I’m late today. And I apologize. Its been a tight week for me and I decided, “let me try something different” we all know how special it feels when you go grocery shopping, open up your pantry and fridge and you smile. Unlimited options. Its like a throwback Thursday photo of a buffet in there! I am thinking of putting up posts “back to back”.

This meal was everything. And more. Of course I had it with Fried Plantains to compliment the spiciness of the rice and some juicy baked chicken drumsticks. Heaven (on earth).

4. Pour in the parboiled rice and let cook in the stock on low heat.

5. Drizzle some oil in a pan along with some black pepper and a pinch of salt and cook the shrimp in it and then repeat this same process with the sausages. Allow them to have a little Burn or blacken on them as this would give it some special smoky flavor.
