    Several have.  Here is one.  I usually do gumbo if you need some recipes for it.

    Jambalaya, Poultry, Chef Wil

    Real comfort food.Chicken, sausage, and corn jambalaya.

    INGREDIENTS:
    1 lb smoked sausage ( sliced)
    1 lb bite sized chicken meat
    1 can rotel tomatoes
    2 med. sized onions (chopped)
    1 large bell pepper (chopped)
    3 ribs celery (chopped)
    1 lb frozen corn kernels
    1 can chicken broth (Swansons 49.5 oz.)
    1 box Uncle Bens rice (32 oz)

    PROCEDURE:

    1. Bring egg to about 600 degrees

    2. Brown smoked sausage and chicken

    3. Add rotel tomatoes, onions, bell pepper and celery

    4. Cook and caramalize the veggies a little.

    5. Add corn kernels and cook for about 15 minutes.

    6. Add chicken broth and rice and cook until it starts to boil

    7. Bring egg down to about 400 degrees and cook for about 20 minutes.

    8. I did not cover the pot while it cooked. I did not add salt and pepper because of the sausage, rotel tomatoes, and broth.

    Servings: 1

    Recipe Type: Dutch Oven, Main Dish, Poultry

    Thanks Chef. That is just what I am looking for. It would also be nice to have a gumbo recipe. I appreciate it.

    @cahill523,

    I've tried to post several gumbo recipes but for some reason, they are not getting through.

    In lieu of posting them again, google "gumbo pages" and look for the many gumbo recipes.

    I have!  

    I make mine with about 1/2 pound of andouille and a whole chicken.  
    I cut the andouille into bite sized pieces and brown that for approx 6-8 mins in a Dutch oven. I pull it out of the DO and drain on a paper towel leaving the renderings in the DO.  
    I add my onion and green peppers to that and brown that until tender and they are a nice rusty color and I add some type of cajun seasoning I have.  It smells divine at this point.  

    I add a can of Rotel with a little water in the can  (half + or so) to rinse it. and let that cook some before adding a cup-(ish) of white rice.  I like the rice soak up some of the liquid I have at this point.  
    I add the chicken and a few pieces of chicken skin for flavor.  
    I add a carton of chicken stock and a bay leaf or two.  
     
    I put the lid on the DO and cook for approx 45 mins or so.  




    Eat, drink and be merry
