  • stock pot

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons oil (we use avocado oil)
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 medium bell peppers, cored and chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 lb. Andouille sausage, thinly sliced into rounds

  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons Creole or Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 lb. raw medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • salt and black pepper
  • 12 oz. frozen cauliflower rice

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a stock pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for 3-5 minutes, to release the flavors.
  • Remove the onions and peppers to a plate; set aside.
  • Add in the remaining ingredients, except the cauliflower rice, and stir to combine.
  • Bring the jambalaya to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 25 minutes.
  • Add in the frozen cauliflower rice and the cooked peppers and onions, and stir to combine.
  • Turn off the heat and let the jambalaya cool for 10 minutes. The heat will transfer to the cauliflower rice, heating it.
  • Garnish and serve hot.
