Low Carb Jambalaya
I love the packaged Jambalaya mixes, problem is they have low grade rice and sugray crap in them.... Here's my version.
1 pound high quality sausage or chicken breast or other meats you like...
2 TBSP Creole seasoning.
Packaged or from scratch... Here's my from scratch Creole seasoning....
* 2 tablespoons onion powder
* 2 tablespoons garlic powder
* 2 tablespoons dried oregano leaves
* 2 tablespoons dried sweet basil
* 1 tablespoon dried thyme leaves
* 1 tablespoon black pepper
* 1 tablespoon white pepper
* 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
* 1 tablespoon celery seed
* 5 tablespoons sweet paprika
pulse all the above in a food processor a few times, add more cayenne for more heat.
1/4 cup cooked whole grain brown rice.
1/2 cup onions
1/2 cup finely chopped diakon radish.
1/2 cup cheese (optional)
cut up and brown the meat, get it fully cooked, now add the veggies and spices and cook until tender, add in the rice and toss for 2 minutes, cover and let simmer on low for 15 minutes, add cheeses to the top, cover for 2 minutes and serve.
Really low carb, only from the rice and onions count the rice by 1/2 because of long grain with fiber in it.
