Jambalaya is a dish that seems ethnic, but when you think about it, the recipe is made of pantry ingredients along with Creole Seasoning. Yep. Easy and adventurous all at the same time.
Ingredients:
1 lb of cooked Andouille Sausage
2 cups of cooked, pulled chicken
3 stalks of celery, sliced into pieces
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 yellow onion, diced
2 cups of white rice

1 Tbsp of Creole Seasoning
1 tsp of oregano
1 tsp of basil
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves of garlic, minced
