This is good stuff. Jambalaya is actually an incredibly easy dish to make. You can make it as spicy as you like by adding more heat, or taking some out. It’s important to use chicken, shrimp, and the chorizo. The flavors combine incredibly to make a fabulous one dish meal. Serve it up with a slab of cornbread and you’ve got yourself a meal fit for royalty.
