Name: Jambalaya with tomato salad
Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4P
Ingredients: 4 drumsticks; pepper and salt; 2 tablespoons peanut oil; 200 g chorizo sausage, sliced into 1 cm pieces, then diced; 5 cloves of garlic, sliced; 1 finely chopped chili pepper; 1 large onion; 1 teaspoon allspice (or cinnamon and black pepper); 1 teaspoon smoked paprika; 1 liter chicken broth; 2 tomatoes; 1 yellow bell pepper; 1 green bell pepper; 300 g rice; 8 large freshwater shrimp; 2 spring onions; Tomato salad:; 4 large beef tomatoes; 1 large white onion; 1 teaspoon fleur de sel; black pepper from the mill; 4 tablespoons mild olive oil; 2 tablespoons vinegar

Cooling: Let the jambalaya cool completely before storing it. This helps prevent condensation, which reduces the risk of bacterial growth. Refrigerator: Store the jambalaya in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is important that the container seals well to maintain freshness and prevent odors from other foods. In the refrigerator, you can keep the jambalaya for up to 2-3 days. Freezer: If you want to store the jambalaya for a longer period, you can freeze it. Divide the jambalaya into portions and place them in airtight freezer containers or freezer bags. Label the containers with the freezing date. In the freezer, the jambalaya will stay good for up to 2-3 months. Reheating: Refrigerator: Take the jambalaya out of the refrigerator and heat it in a pan on the stove over medium heat. You can add a little water or broth to prevent drying out. Stir regularly until the dish is heated through. Freezer: First, thaw the frozen jambalaya in the refrigerator (preferably the night before). Then you can reheat the thawed jambalaya as described above. You can also reheat the jambalaya directly from the freezer in the microwave or in an oven-safe dish in the oven. Make sure the dish is heated evenly to ensure food safety. Tips: Avoid repeatedly reheating and cooling the jambalaya, as this can reduce the quality and safety of the food. When reheating, you can add some extra fresh vegetables or herbs to refresh the flavor. With these storage instructions, you can enjoy your jambalaya to the fullest, even if you have some leftovers for later!
