Method
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add sliced chorizo and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes.
Add diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic; sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir in diced tomatoes, chicken stock, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a simmer.
Add Qetoe Rice directly into the skillet without rinsing and cook for 5 minutes, stirring gently while it absorbs the flavours.
Finally, add shrimp and cook until pink and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Make sure to adjust the spice levels to your preference! If you enjoy milder dishes, reduce the cayenne pepper. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice for an extra zest before serving.
This jambalaya is traditionally rich in carbs from rice, but with Qetoe Rice and our cooking methods, each serving provides just 12.5g of net carbs, making it suitable for low-carb diets.
