Jambalaya

January 14, 2016 por Carolina Rojas Leave a Comment

Jump to Recipe

The Jambalaya is a typical dish of the state of Louisiana in the United States, it’s very famous around these lands, and why not… it’s so delicious. This version is an adaptation from an Ina Garten recipe, she added chicken, an ingredient that is not usually added into this recipe, and it was quite tasty. The preparation takes a little more time, but I assure you that it’s totally worth it. It’s a dish that is ideal for sharing with a group of friends or family. This recipe is good for about 8 people, but you can use half of the ingredients if you want, to make fewer servings.
