I know a lot of you are living of Ramen noodles and Little Ceasars 5$ pizza's. but fear no more. today we're going to show you how to make a down south dish that wont break your already empty bank accounts!
Jambalaya is a traditional southern dish that usually consists of three parts; meat, vegetables and rice.
i picked up some Zatarans Jambalaya mix from my local safeway. 2 boxes to be exact. Then i headed to the local creek and threw out my crawfish trap i purchased at Bi-mart for about $8. i baited it with some leftover salmon meat i had in the freezer. after letting the trap soak overnight i pulled in about 20 crawdaddies. I put them in a bucket and headed home.
Once home, i chopped green pepper,corn,red pepper,onion and one jalapeno. After blasting the crawfish for a couple minutes with the garden hose i boiled a stockpot of water and cooked them for about 5 minutes. Then peeled them and got some decent tail and claw meat. Next i chopped up some andouille chicken sausage.
Cook the zatarans jambo mix according to their instructions. Once finished add all your prepared veggies and meats and let it simmer with a lid on so you dont lose all your moisture for about 15minutes stirring occasionally.
We topped ours with some cheddar jalapeno cornbread, no big deal.
Youre now ready to get to gettin, cause this dish is hittin!
