One of my favorite Cajun dishes.
Jambalaya
2 1/2 Lb meat, some combination of pork chops chicken, Andouille, or smoked or Italian sausage 2 medium onions ,
2 bell peppers, and/or bunch scallions Cajun/Creole spice (you can approximate with equal amounts of black, Cayenne, and white pepper; some garlic powder, and salt) 2 Tbsp. parsley
2 C uncooked rice
If the meat has bones, boil it until it's reasonably easy to get it off the bone. (save the stock)
Dice up meat, fry it until some fat is rendered, add diced up veggies, fry until
they are coated with fat and begin to soften. Add some spice and herbs, toss around until the meat and veggies are coated. Add water, bring to a boil.
Boil/simmer until the meat is over half done. (taste the stock
occasionally to make sure the spices are ok) Add the rice and cook until the rice is done.
Serve with Tabasco and bread.
