New Orleans Jambalaya
Description
The dish is convenient and easy to prepare in one pot: a deep skillet or saucepan. Instead of ham, you can use smoked sausages, regular sausage, or even seafood. According to the recipe's history, jambalaya is considered a failed attempt to make paella. In my opinion, it's a very successful attempt—the dish turns out hearty and delicious.
