Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

Chicken, smoked sausage, and cooked shrimp come together nicely in this spicy Cajun rice dish.
1 pound boneless chicken breasts
1 pound smoked sausage
1 can (28 ounce size) crushed tomatoes
1 medium onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried parsley
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound cooked shrimp
2 cups cooked rice
Cut the chicken into cubes. Slice the smoked sausage. Add both to the crock pot.
Add the tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, broth, wine, oregano, parsley, Cajun seasoning and cayenne pepper to the crock pot and stir gently to combine.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6 hours or until chicken is cooked.
Turn heat to high and stir in the cooked rice and shrimp. Cook for 15 minutes longer or until shrimp is heated through.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Can you use I minute rice, or instant? Saw elsewhere that boil in a bag brown rice was used?
Any kind of rice is fine as it's just meant to serve with the jambalaya.

OMG!!!! This is perfect Jambalaya. Just the right amount of heat (my lips are tingly). I definitely recommend this recipe. The only thing I changed was to use a Chicken Andouille sausage and 1 cup of wine instead of half a cup. I also cooked it overnight so it was on for about 8 hours. Turned out great!

Only change I made was to add some salt when I added the rice/shrimp because I had used low sodium chicken broth so it needed a little extra. Everything was good and nicely cooked. Was worried that 6 hours might be too long with my crock pot but it turned out great.

I sauteed the onion and pepper a little first and browned the chicken. Probably could have cut the cooking time down to 4 hours because of that but it was fine still at 6 hours. Very good recipe. Will make again. Thank you.

Loved it! I hadn't made something like this with chicken sausage and shrimp all together before. I wasn't sure how they'd all taste together but it was pretty delicious. Makes a lot of food though.
Finally put my crock pots to good use! Served the jambalaya for dinner.....my dinner guest loved it; I cut my recipe in half and made one pot with brown rice and the other with wild rice. I noticed the jambalaya was soupy, so I added another cup of rice to absorb the liquid. That did the trick. I always make large portions of rice and freeze the excess so when I need rice, all I have to do is pull it out of the freezer. Both dishes received rave reviews. I will definitely make it again!

Yeah, I'm a Cajun from Baton Rouge Louisiana and this dish does our neck of the woods more than justice. And it makes a ton of food and you'll have tons of great leftovers and it's easy as pie and delicious to boot. I love crock pot meals and this is one of the best I've found!
