RECIPE BACKSTORY
Just prepared this again today so will share. The orginal recipe came from the H.E.B. grocery store site and have enjoyed it many times. I do add onions, adding them in with the chicken. Today I made it using Hillshire Farms Hot Sauage and the results was a jambalaya with just a small kick which my husband and I enjoy. Would not class it as a hot dish with the different sausage. Its easy to prepare and very filling.
