Add sausage, chicken, bell peppers, onion, jalapeños, chicken broth, tomatoes, minced garlic, cajun seasoning, and salt and pepper to greased slow cooker and stir to combine. Cover and cook for 3-4 hours on low. Stir in rice and cook another 1-2 hours until rice is fully cooked and tender

About 20 minutes before serving, uncover slow cooker, stir in shrimp, re-cover and cook for another 15-20 minutes. Stir contents of slow cooker, sprinkle with chopped cilantro or parsley if desired, and serve hot.

The rice was a mix of cooked and hard after 2 hours and i followed all the measurements. I had to leave on longer than ii expected

I omit the chicken because I am not a fan of chicken. Sometimes I do pork but trying to think of another meat to add or sometimes 2 of the sausage. I use crawfish boil as Cajun seasoning is way too salty for me. I usually also omit the salt and pepper to the meal. This is one meal that I can make up to 3 times a year. I have had this page pinned on my dinner board for years if that says anything lol. Thank you for sharing this recipe. If you have any idea of what other meat I could use, please let me know.

I made this last week and it was DELICIOUS! I am making it again this week as my husband couldn’t stop talking about it. The only thing I am doing differently now is cooking the rice separately then I will add it into the crock pot at the end to absorb the flavor. I couldn’t get the rice to cook all the way through in the crockpot last time. It was on for 3 hours and it was still Al dente! Thank you  for this recipe.

Wish it were more complex in flavor and less tomato-forward.

I love this recipe and have made it a few times. I find my rice sometimes needs high heat to cook through. Anyone else? I like to add extra garlic too.

Excellent recipe. Instead of fresh jalapeno, I opted for pickled jalapeno, which I think enhanced the taste.

I recommend making the rice separate, ours was on the mushy side. Also, one jalapeno was pretty spicy for us (or maybe we just had a really spicy one? LOL) Overall, we enjoyed it and will probably make again.

I used 2 instead of 3 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning and thought it was still way too spicy. My husband who usually likes spicy things agreed it was too hot. I  omitted the jalapenos completely. I will make the recipe again, but only use 1 tablespoon of seasoning and no jalapenos. 3 stars only because of the heat.

Make the jambalaya: Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a 10-inch high-sided skillet or a braiser over medium-high until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add the onion, celery, bell pepper, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are softened, 5–6 minutes.

Add the garlic to the skillet mixture, and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet mixture, and let heat for 30 seconds.

Add the sausage to the skillet mixture, and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly browned, 3–4 minutes.

Add the shrimp to the skillet mixture, and cook, stirring occasionally, until just coated in the oil, 1–2 minutes.

Add the Cajun seasoning, thyme, paprika, black pepper, and cayenne to the skillet mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is fragrant, 30–60 seconds.

Add the tomatoes and juices to the skillet mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly bubbling, 2–3 minutes.

Add the broth and rice to the skillet mixture; stir to combine, then cover. Increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer, undisturbed, for 10 minutes.

Uncover the skillet. Stir in the black-eyed peas, and cover again. Cook, undisturbed, until the rice is tender, fluffy, and cooked through, 10–15 minutes. Remove from heat, and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Uncover, and stir the mixture, fluffing the rice with a large fork.

Top with your favorite hot sauce and a handful of chopped celery leaves and/or parsley. Serve with a side of garlic bread.
