This is a mild dish compared to true Cajun style Jambalaya, but could be
heated up with the addition of some cayenne pepper.  It’s been a
popular dish as-is with every guest I’ve ever cooked it for.

1 cup chopped Onion
1/2 cup
chopped Green Pepper
1 clove Garlic, minced
3 Tbsp. Olive
Oil
1 pound Shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 Bay Leaf,
crumbled
16 oz. can of Tomatoes
1/2 pound Cooked Ham, cubed
1 cup uncooked Rice
2 cups Chicken Broth
1 tsp. Salt
1/8 tsp. Pepper
1/8 tsp. Thyme
1/8 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
Sauce

Steps:

  1. Cook onion, pepper, garlic, and 2
    Tbsp. oil for 3 minutes.
  2. Add shrimp, cook until they are pink,
    set aside.
  3. Cook 1 Tbsp. oil and rice over medium heat until
    browned.
  4. Add broth, salt, pepper, thyme, tabasco, bay leaf, and
    tomato.
  5. Heat to boiling, reduce heat and simmer for about 15
    minutes.
  6. Add shrimp, ham. Cook until heated.
