JAMBALAYA, CHICKEN/PEPPERONI



Jambalaya, Chicken/Pepperoni image

My own recipe on a creole favorite. So, most eveyone says "Pepperoni!?" Of course pepperoni. It is absolutely perfect in Jambalaya. The taste of pepperoni is just a beautiful match for the taste of the cayene peppers and tobasco sauce. Oh, I just love this dish. You have got to try it!

JAMBALAYA



Jambalaya image

From her home in Topeka, Kansas, subscriber Betty May shares her recipe for quick-to-cook jambalaya. "Unlike some versions, this one doesn't have to simmer for hours," she notes. "Folks who like their food a bit spicy are sure to enjoy it. Jalapeno and cayenne pepper add some zip to the shrimp and chicken."
