From Fitness Magazine. We thought this was quite good, and easier than making it completely from scratch on the stove. I subbed fresh tomatoes and jalapenos with no problems. I also stirred in some small cooked and peeled shrimp 15 minutes before serving. I used Zatarain's Jambalaya mix which has no separate seasoning packet, so both the rice and spices went in together. Ingredients:
8 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast halves |
1 (16 ounce) package frozen peppers and onions |
8 ounces smoked turkey sausage, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch slices |
2 cups water |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with jalapeno peppers, undrained |
1 (8 ounce) package jambalaya rice mix |
Directions:
1. Cut chicken into 1/2-inch strips. 2. Place frozen vegetables in a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker and top with chicken strips and turkey sausage. 3. Add water, undrained tomatoes, and seasoning packet from rice. 4. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 5 to 6 hours or on high-heat setting for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. 5. Stir in rice. 6. Cover and cook about 45 minutes more (if using low-heat setting, turn to high-heat setting), or until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. |
