Our quick and easy jambalaya recipe is a flavorful and filling dish all made in one pot — perfect for busy nights! This comforting, Cajun dish calls for boneless skinless chicken breasts alongside smoked sausage, two ingredients necessary to lend deep richness to the rice. Combined with sautéed onions and Cajun seasoning, and then mixed together with chicken broth and stewed tomatoes, homemade jambalaya is comfort food at its best. While jambalaya is a hearty meal on its own, we love to serve it with homemade cornbread, creamed corn or a simple side salad for a complete spread. For a twist on this recipe, try our other easy jambalaya recipe with sausage and a medley of veggies. Craving more bold spices and Southern-inspired favorites?

A pot of jambalaya is always a good idea. Make it your own and add shrimp or cubed pork.
