Instructions
- For the Cajun chicken: place the chicken breasts into a dish and sprinkle over the Schwartz Cajun Seasoning. Mix well, cover with cling film and marinate in the fridge whilst you make the jambalaya.
- For the Jambalaya: heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the celery and sausage for 1-2 minutes, stirring often. Add the rice and Schwartz Cajun Seasoning, stir gently to coat and fry for a further minute. Pour in the tomatoes and stock and sprinkle in the Schwartz® Dried Flat Leaf Parsley. Mix well and bring to the boil.
- Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Add the diced chicken and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add the spring onions and prawns and cook for a further 5 minutes - or until the chicken is fully cooked, all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
- Spoon into bowls and serve garnished with sliced chillies and your choice of herbs, if wished.
