I'm in the middle of a rut. I have all these amazing ideas for blog posts but I absolutely have no motivation to write them. Well, I forced myself to try a new recipe so I could share it here. It was more of a wing-it situation because I didn't have most of the ingredients the recipe called for but I made do with what I had available. Anyway here is my recipe for Jambalaya.
Ingredients: 1-2 chicken breasts; cubed 4 hot links; sliced ¼ cup chopped onion of your choice 1 tsp minced garlic ¼ cup chopped bell pepper any color 1 can of chicken broth ½ a box Penne Pasta; uncooked Hot sauce to taste (I used Valentina) Salt to taste Pepper to taste Chile powder to taste Parsley flakes (for topping off the dish) ½ tsp of olive oil Directions: I started by seasoning my chicken with the salt, pepper, and chile powder then cooked my chicken at medium-high heat until fully cooked. Put the chicken to the side. In a deep frying pan, on medium-high heat, saute the onions and bell pepper until soft. Then put in the garlic and continue to saute until fragrant. (This usually takes a few minutes.) After the garlic is fragrant, cook the hot links and chicken in the same frying pan for five minutes. After five minutes, put the pasta, the hot sauce, and chicken broth into the pan and stir well. (It was at this point I noticed my broth didn't cover most of the pasta so I added a cup of water to ensure my pasta would cook.) Cook on medium-high heat for 15 minutes (or until pasta is cooked) with the lid on, then top jambalaya with parsley flakes. Feel free to add more chile powder or hot sauce to make it spicier. I refrained from making it spicy because Anthony is sensitive to spices. I know this isn't authentic Jambalaya but it was a yummy alternative!
