Jambalaya is a spicy and flavorful rice dish that originated in Louisiana. To make it, heat some oil in a large pot or Dutch oven and add diced onions, bell peppers, and celery. Cook until the vegetables are tender, then add diced chicken, sausage, or shrimp. Cook until the meat is browned, then add 1 can of diced tomatoes, 2 cups of chicken broth, and some spices like cayenne pepper, paprika, and thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve hot.
