Directions
Need 1 large stock pot, bamboo skewers, 8 x 12" aluminum foil double boiler pan (fill bottom pan with 1/2" water, inset 2nd pan).

Preheat grill and place double boiler on grill to heat the water.

Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.

Place chicken and shrimp each in their own bowl. Drizzle each with a tbsp of olive oil and sprinkle with a tsp of creole seasoning, and mix and cover.

Prepare the ZATARAIN'SŪ Jambalaya Mix as directed, in the stock pot.

Prepare all the vegetables.

Skewer the shrimp through each piece twice(so you don't lose any on the grill)

Cut the sausage into manageable-size pieces.

Mix all the vegetables and butter pats into the double boiler, along with a dash of
creole seasoning. Cover loosely with foil.

Grill the chicken, sausage, and shrimp. The shrimp will cook fastest and usually only need to be cooked 2-4 min per side, on a hot grill.

Stir the vegetable mix occasionally, and add the meat as it finishes cooking. Cut the chicken and sausage into bite-sized pieces before adding to mix.

Total cooking time on the grill should be 20-25 mins.

Mix the contents of the double boiler to the rice and serve immediately.

Enjoy!
