Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick and Easy Jambalaya.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a large pot and melting some butter over medium-high heat, letting that delicious aroma fill your kitchen.

Once the butter is bubbling, toss in the sliced sausage along with the chopped onion, vibrant red and green bell peppers, and minced garlic.
Step 3
Stir everything together and let it cook for about five minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the sausage has a lovely golden-brown color.
Step 4
Next, stir in the crushed tomatoes, a splash of hot pepper sauce for a kick, along with black pepper, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Bring this flavorful mixture to a gentle boil, allowing all those wonderful flavors to meld together.

Finally, add in your hot, cooked rice, stirring gently until everything is heated through and well combined, which should take another three to five minutes.
