Slow Cooker Jambalaya

Posted by Jennifer Ashley at 1:27 AM



So....I decided to make up my own version of jambalaya in the crock pot and it actually turned out pretty good! I just decided to use what I had at home! Yay, no trips to the grocery store! Here's what I did...

Ingredients
-1 pound of Neese's Sausage (there's nothing better)
-1 pound of chicken (chopped)
-1 bag of pre-cooked jumbo shrimp
-1/2 onion (chopped)
-1/2 green pepper (chopped)
-1/2 red pepper (chopped)
-all purpose flour
-1 large can of diced tomatoes
-1 small can of tomatoes and okra
-1 can chicken stock
-Louisiana hot sauce (I used the kind from Slotchsky's)
-creole seasoning
-chili powder

1) Sautee sausage, chicken, onion, green pepper, and red pepper until meat is nearly done
2) Put diced tomatoes, tomatoes and okra, and sauteed mixture in the crock pot (leaving as much of the grease in the pan as possible
3) Using the leftover grease in the pan, make a roux by adding an equal amount of all purpose flour to the grease
4) Stir in flour until it looks kind of like a dough
5) Stir in the can of chicken stock a little bit at a time and heat until the consistency is similar to a "runny gravy"
6) Season the roux with hot sauce, creole seasoning, and chili powder to taste
7) Add the roux to the crock pot, stir in, set the crock pot to low, and walk away!
8) When you are about 10 minutes away from eating it, add in the shrimp (I cut my shrimp into thirds)
9) Serve over rice
