BRAD'S CAMPSITE JAMBALAYA

Steps:

• Prepare grill for high heat. Heat oil in a large wok or skillet set directly on grate. (If cooking indoors, place over high heat.) Add chicken and sausage; season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning often, until browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, until it begins to darken, about 2 minutes. Mix in tomatoes, scraping up browned bits, then mix in rice, seasoning, and bay leaves. Add broth; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Move wok to a cooler spot (or reduce heat), cover with foil, and simmer until almost all liquid is absorbed, 20-30 minutes.
• Season shrimp with salt and pepper; mix into rice. Cover and cook until rice is tender and shrimp are cooked through, 5-8 minutes. Top with parsley.

Steps:

• Melt butter in Dutch oven. Add chicken pieces and fry lightly until brown. Remove and set aside. Add bell pepper, onion, garlic to pan and saute until onions are clear. Add chicken and everything else into pan. Here's where I added the tomatoes. Bring to a simmer. Cook uncovered till the water cooks down below the pot contents, put on lid and simmer for about 30 minutes. Do not lift the lid during the last 30 minutes. Serve.
