Ragin' Cajun Jambalaya (Crock Pot) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 large onion, finely chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
2 celery ribs, thinly sliced (with leaves)
16 ounces kielbasa or 16 ounces andouille sausages, sliced
2 cups cooked cubed chicken (optional)
1 (28 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup uncooked converted rice
1 cup chicken stock or 1 cup water
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning (I use Salt-Free Cajun Seasoning Salt-Free Cajun Seasoning)
1 lb frozen tailless cooked large shrimp, defrosted
snipped fresh parsley, to garnish
hot sauce, to serve

Preparation

Place all the ingredients except the shrimp into the crock pot; stir well to combine.
Cover and cook on LOW heat for 4-5 hours, until rice is done and vegetables are tender. (If you have an older model crockpot as I do, cook on HIGH for same amount of time).
Stir in the shrimp, cover, and cook for 20-30 minutes until heated through.
Garnish with snipped parsley and serve with hot sauce at the table.
