Jambalaya is a one-pot recipe of comfort food filled to the brim with flavour. The aromatic trinity of Cajun/Creole cooking: onion, celery, and bell peppers, sautéed in sausage drippings with garlic, herbs and Cajun spices! Chef Ivars used Chorizo sausage because it’s readily available and extremely similar to Andouille sausage with no fillers. Adding chicken and shrimp to this pot of tomato rice makes this one amazing meal in the comfort of your own home!
