Ingredients
- 12 ounces cooked smoked sausage sliced into thin rounds (andouille is traditional, I used smoked beef sausage)
- 1 medium/large yellow onion sliced into thin strips
- 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 3 teaspoons Cajun or Creole seasoning divided; or to taste (use less for milder flavor)
- ¾ to 1 pound cleaned and deveined raw shrimp I prefer large 15-20 count shrimp
- two 8.8-ounce bags cooked rice warmed according to directions (I prefer Spanish-Style Rice) OR 4 cups of your preferred cooked rice
- one 16-ounce jar thick and chunky salsa I used medium heat
- 2 to 4 tablespoons green onions sliced into thin rounds for garnishing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F and line a half sheet pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup. Then, spray with cooking spray.
- Add the sausage, onions, evenly drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and evenly sprinkle 2 teaspoons seasoning.
- Bake for about 7 to 10 minutes, or until onions soften and sausage 'sears' around the edges.
- Remove sheet pan from the oven, flip the sausage and onions, evenly add the shrimp, evenly drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and evenly sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon seasoning.
- Return the pan to the oven, and bake for about 4 minutes, or until shrimp are opaque and nearly done. If you're using smaller shrimp, bake for less time (~3 minutes) so they don't overcook.
- While the sheet pan is in the oven, to a medium bowl, add the warmed rice, salsa, and stir to combine.
- Remove sheet pan from the oven, stir and flip the sausage, onions, and shrimp.
- Evenly sprinkle the rice and salsa mixture, stir to combine, and bake for about 2 minutes, or until everything is warmed through and the shrimp are done.
- Evenly garnish with the green onions and serve immediately.
Notes
- Storage: Jambalaya will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 3 days.
