Jambalaya is a Creole and Cajun rice dish. It has both Spanish and French influences. Traditionally it is a meat and vegetable dish with rice in a seasoned, and sometimes spicy, broth.
This is my less than traditional version of the dish. The recipe makes approximately four servings and takes about two hours.
