The Ultimate One Pot Meal (Jambalaya) - Dutch Oven Series

[@victoriawilson7404]

I MUST SAY...This recipe that Yes Chef is demonstrating here is hands down the BEST OF THE BEST Jambalaya recipes...I've tried many recipes, and I always come back to Yes Chef's recipe!! PHENOMINAL!

This guy means business. He’s not messing around. Looks so good.

[@godfreyofbouillon966]

Great video, very informative, lots of tips, no silly gimmicks, no distracting background music, a real pro. I'm gonna cook jambalaya in a few hours and out of all the videos I've watched on KZbin to learn it, this one is the best by a wide margin.

[@valleriesummers5691]

Great video and presentation! It looks so good, appreciate the very best instructions and the way it was presented. Thank-you❤️

[@Gud2B_Blessed]

Made this tonight 2/11/23 and Lawd have mercy!!! Excellent !!!! I used lobster in mine.... and Baaaabbbbeeeeee YUM😋😋😋

[@dougg1075]

Ok I’m back after making this version. I’ve made it for years as I’m in the South and we grew up on the stuff. This recipe is very authentic and delicious. Maybe the best I’ve made. One thing I do different is pour a box of shrimp stock ( Walmart has it) in a pot , put my discarded union skins , green bell peppers , celery pieces I won’t use into it while cutting my veggies. Also put the shrimp shells in there with a bay leaf and garlic, also a spoonful of “ Better than Bouillon “ garlic base, roasted chicken, ham and onion base. When you get ready for the liquid I strain the stock and pour in the magic. Chefs spice list is perfect.

[@YESChefCreates]

Thank you for your support

[@hectorgonzales3082]

This is one of the best narrated cooking videos I've ever seen. Very well done. Outstanding delivery. I appreciate the recipe Chef. Jambalaya is one my bucket list!

[@hectorgonzales3082]

Hey, I made this last night. I will tell you this, it was about an hour and a half from start to finish but it was worth it. Andouille sausage, pork, chicken, and shrimp. I appreciate the recipe Chef looking forward to some more cooking. H from H-Town

I lost a really good authentic jambalaya recipe when I traded my iPhone for an Android several years ago and have been looking for that recipe for literally years. This is right on the money. Your narration is excellent. Your ingredients are perfect. Great job Sir, this is how you earn a sub.

[@PCDisciple]

I keep coming back to this video, hopefully I can remember this wonderful recipe by heart one day!

[@YESChefCreates]

I return back to this video as well. The biggest reason I started KZbin was because I could never remember my recipes. I'm lazy at writing them down

[@dougg1075]

Cajun cuisine is my favorite food in the world. Cajun cooking like this is done on days when you are in the mood to COOK, you gonna spend some time in the kitchen and man is it worth it. Loved the video man

This is hands down the best jambalaya recipe I've seen I can't wait to make this! I don't want a recipe that's only gonna take 10mins to cook I want something that's gonna take time n a lot of love n this recipe is exactly that! Thank you chef👍

[@charlessneed793]

i don't no about that 10 min, it takes 30 min!!!

[@stubru66]

"I perfected this" that comment made me smile. You looked real happy with that, and it looks damn delish. Well done mate

[@TheProjectManager100]

To get the browning on the bottom of the dutch oven, I saw another video where they cooked the chicken and sausage first (about three-quarters of the way cooked) and then removed it from the dutch oven. What they had after removing the chicken and sausage was all that "goodness" on the bottom of the pot which is similar to what is called the socarat when cooking a spanish paella. Then they placed the onions in the pot to cook and sweat down, and then the rest of the holy trinity, seasonings and spcies, etc. Never made this dish but I am definitely going to make it in the next week or two. It looks amazing. Wish there was smellavision.

[@gpzjeffrey7974]

Yes! Get your Maillard reaction (brown) the chicken and sausage in the pot first, then remove. Deglaze the pot of the fond with the caramelization of the onions, then everything else just like he did. That's the only thing out of order here. Meat first, then the trinity.

[@BP-or2iu]

This isn’t a Cajun jambalaya (it has tomatoes) BUT what you’ve described is a key technique in almost all Cajun dishes. We always brown the meat heavily, then remove, and sweat the veggies in those juices and scrape up the fond. We spend a lot of time building a base for gravies like that.

[@michaelnunyaa1219]

The best recipes I've seen cook the sausage first, to build some fond and render some of the andouille fat, then cook the chicken, to build more fond and add a little schmaltz to the mix, then deglaze with the onion, then the rest of the trinity, getting even more flavor. Putting the chicken in with the wet veggies almost guarantees you'll be steaming the chicken, not searing it.

[@janeenspencer1368]

I made this tonight. It's exactly as great as he said. Delicious! Nice kick.

[@gardeniagaribo-garcia8580]

This came out amazing!!! Didn’t use a Dutch oven but it still cooked perfect. Thank you!!

OK, just made your recipe for Jambalaya and I will categorically state that this is the best I have ever had! Bar none. I wrote done everything exactly as you said to do it and it came out perfectly....my family was very surprised and excited at the levels of flavor, just as you said!!! Thank-you again and keep up the good work!!

[@margaretbradley6693]

I can't wait to make it. Best recipe I have seen.. I will probably make a mess.

[@tsrindahl]

I’ve been making Jambalaya for about 20 years and have always struggled to keep the rice from sticking to the bottom as I kept cooking it. Your solution to just lid it and let it sit for 20 minutes was such a great tip. Thanks!

[@thiscorrosion900]

Last time I made it the last step is just cover and let it sit for 25 minutes or so and it came out fine.

[@nicknicholas3186]

Very nice chet. Excellent job..I prefer Browning the chicken and sausage first. Remove from pot then adding it back when rice and stick is in. Also add shrimp for the final 10 minutes of cooking. Glad I found you.

[@YESChefCreates]

Thanks for the tip

[@alliechavez896]

That’s what’s up I use the seafood magic seasoning on both jambalaya and gumbo. That’s my go to and you can never go wrong using that stuff. And you are absolutely on point with using both seasoning mixes that include the dry herbs And using them all by themselves. This is what makes an incredible jambalaya and gives it amazing flavor. And you’re also absolutely right about using skinless boneless thighs in a soup or stew because it has better flavor and it does not get dry like you said. The only time using breast and jambalaya works out is if you’re using a whole entire chicken

Another great recipe, brother. Only thing I did differently is I used shell-on shrimp. I peeled the shrimp and used the shells to make my own shrimp stock by frying them till fragrant and adding chicken stock. I usually have some homemade shrimp stock in the freezer so I can use shelled shrimp in recipes sometimes.

[@YESChefCreates]

You can always order spices from Walmart online and get them shipped

[@goonn337]

@@YESChefCreates Did u use the shrimp shells from the shrimp to make the stock?

[@OSGCourtWatch]

Great technique (bacon grease & chicken smalz are THE BOMB in jambalaya)...one question and a thought... question first...what is the induction burner u are using and how do u like it? I lied...2 questions...do u use long grain or short grain rice (think short grain is more prone to becoming gummy, esp if not rinsed)? Just a couple thoughts...we use roasted red peppers in ours...roasting adds a LOT of additional flavor. I like to rub some of the spices on the chicken and brown it with the andouille before starting the veg to build up that bottom of the pan crust even more...just another layer of flavor.

[@YESChefCreates]

The burner is gas used for camping. You can find them in the camping section at Walmart. I love it. Rice is long grain parboiled.

Looks like a really great Creole style Jambalaya! Congrats! It has all the right elements and probably hits just right You could magnify and add another layer - Suggestion if you want to try it: if you want to brown the andouille sausage first and then use that fat and bacon fat to brown the chicken (use a portion of the cajun seasoning to coat it). They'll both have a nice layer of browning which adds a lot to the dish. Also, cutting the onion and peppers down to smaller dice will help them cook through and caramelize a bit. Keep on cookin!

Thanks. I used the shells & tails once to make a stock to "shrimp-ify" some shrimp grits & it was way TOO salty! Added an onion whole to cure the salt problem & it was too "onion-y". I was ready to toss the whole pot then, but the retard roommate who suggested the onion liked it.
