    Recipe:
    Chicken and Tasso Jambalaya
    Seasoning Mix
    2 whole bay leaves
    2 tsp ground red pepper
    1 1/2 tsp salt
    1 1/2 tsp white pepper
    1 tsp dried thyme
    1/2 tsp black pepper
    1/4 tsp rubbed sage
    2 Tbsp unsalted butter
    1/2 pound chopped tasso (about 2 cups)
    3/4 pound boneless chicken, cut into bite size pieces, about 2 cups
    1 cup chopped onions, divided
    1 cup chopped celery, divided
    1 cup chopped green bell pepper, divided
    1 Tbsp minced garlic
    1/2 cup canned tomato sauce
    1 cup peeled and chopped tomatoes
    2 1/2 cups basic chicken stock
    1 1/2 cups uncooked rice (preferably converted)
    Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside
    1. Melt the butter in a 2 quart saucepan over high heat. Add the tasso and cook until meat starts to brown, about 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
    2. Add the chicken and continue cooking until chicken is brown, about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan very well.
    3. Stir in the seasoning mix and 1/2 cup each of the onions, celery, and bell peppers. Add the garlic.
    4. Cook until the vegetables start to get tender, about 5 to 8 minutes, stirring fairly often scraping the bottom of the pan as needed.
    5. Stir in the tomato sauce and cook about 1 minute, stirring often.
    6. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup each of the onions, celery, and bell peppers. Also add the tomatoes. Remove from heat.
    7. Stir in the stock and rice, mixing well. Transfer mixture to an ungreased 8x8 inch baking pan.
    8. Bake uncovered in a 350 degree oven until rice is tender but still a bit crunchy (about 1 hour)
    9. Stir well, remove bay leaves, let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
    To serve, mold rice in an 8 ounce cup and place 2 cups on each serving plate for main course. 1 cup for appetizer,

    Looks great! I’ve never made jambalaya in the oven before seems like a good plan. Tasso jambalaya is the best!
    I made some tasso jambalaya Monday night during the Saints game. Getting video ready for Friday.
    Yours looked good. I grew up with creole style “red” but I prefer the Cajun “Brown” jambalaya.
    Glad I found your channel excellent work.

    By far the best jambalaya ever. Better than any restaurant. Can someone help me with something; if I double up on this recipe for a party, do I still put it in the over for one hour, or two hours since it's double?

    • @TheCajunChef
      @TheCajunChef  2 года назад +1

      I would think the same amout of time should be good but you may want to add 15 to 20 minutes longer in the oven. You could use parboiled rice instead or regular rice as it tends to be more forgiving.

    You really shouldn't use a metal spoon when you cook in a cast iron pot. You'll get some nasty scratches in it and it'll be ruined. Also, I don't remember it being moist. Maybe I'm thinking of the rice being cooked separately. I want to try and make this, I'm afraid I'll get stuck having to eat it all myself. lol

      To get the meat to brown right, and get best out of each type of meat
      Goes all back after veg are put in, and little broth is put in and brought to boil, put meat back in, rest of broth ,then.rice, bring back up to boil and stire. Boil five to ten minutes, than cover, lid on fire on very low cover for 45 min. True Cajun.
