Authentic Jambalaya Recipe Louisiana, United States of America

Jambalaya is a type of stew from Louisiana made by sautéing meat or fish with vegetables and then adding seasoning. Broth and rice are added last, and the stew is left to simmer until the rice is al dente. There are two types of jambalaya — brown, "cajun" jambalaya and red, "creole" jambalaya — the only difference between the two being that red jambalaya contains tomatoes. Another popular way of making this dish is to cook the rice separately, a method used by most restaurants to save time.
