How to make jambalaya:

Season and brown chicken in oil (lard, bacon drippings) over medium-high heat. Add sausage to pot and saute with chicken. Remove broth from pot. For brown jambalya, either add heaping tablespoon brown sugar to hot oil and caramelize, make roux or use Kitchen Bouquet. For red jambalya, delete this. Saute onions, celery, green pepper and garlic to the tenderness that you desire. Return chicken and sausage to pot.

Add liquid and salt, pepper and other desired seasonings and bring to a boil. If using Kitchen Bouquet for brown jambalaya, add 1 to 2 tablespoons. For red jambalaya, add approximately 1/4 cup paprika, and you may want to use 1/2 stock and 1/2 tomato juice or V-8 for your liquid. Add rice and return to boil. Cover and reduce heat to simmer. Cook for a total of 30 minutes. After 10 minutes of cooking, remove cover and quickly turn rice from top to bottom completely. Add green onions and chopped tomatoes, if desired. For seafood jambalaya, follow the first two steps and then return seafood here.
