Description

By no means is this as good as the jambalaya you find in Louisana. But it is a good recipe that you can make in your slow cooker. It’s a family favorite.

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds Whole Chicken, Cut Up
  • 1 can (14 1/2 Oz. Size) Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 can (14 1/2 Oz. Size) Chicken Broth
  • 1 whole Green Bell Pepper, Chopped
  • 2 cups French Fried Onions
  • ¼ cups Hot Sauce
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Chopped
  • 2 teaspoons Old Bay Seafood Seasoning
  • 1-½ teaspoon Dried Oregano Leaves
  • ¾ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Black Pepper
  • 1 cup Uncooked Regular Rice
  • 1 pound Shrimp, Peeled And Deveined

Preparation

Combine chicken, tomatoes, chicken broth, green pepper, 1 cup of French Fried Onions, hot sauce, garlic, seafood seasoning, oregano, salt, and pepper in your slow cooker. Cook on low for 5 hours.

Stir and remove the chicken bones if you’d like (shredding the chicken in the process). Stir in the rice and cook on low for about 1 1/2 hours or until all the liquid is absorbed and rice is cooked.

Turn slow cooker to high and add the shrimp. Cook for 1/2 hour or until shrimp turn pink. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup French Fried Onions when all done. Enjoy!

You can just thrown in thawed, pre-cooked frozen shrimp, too. That’s usually what I do.

This was great! I thought the french fried onions weren’t really necessary though, and I couldn’t find any hot sauce at my grocery store so I just chopped up a couple hot peppers and threw those in instead. This was also one of the easiest meals to make. . .I have a feeling this is going to become another staple of my diet!
