I know, I know...what the hell does a Newfoundlander know about cajun cooking, right?

Zone's Chicken & Shrimp Jambalaya
==========================
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound chorizo sausage, cut into 1/4-inch slices
- 2 cups chopped onion
- 2 cups sliced celery
- 2 cups chopped green pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped jalapeno peppers
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, cut up
- 3 cups water
- 2 cups cooked, cubed chicken
- 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (to taste)
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 pound fresh or frozen raw shrimp, shelled and deveined
- Hot pepper sauce (I like Frank's Red Hot)

Directions
In a big pot over medium heat, cook sausage, onion, celery, peppers, and garlic in olive oil until tender. Add remaining ingredients except shrimp and hot pepper sauce. Bring to a boil. Cover; reduce heat and simmer 20-25 minutes or until rice is tender. Add shrimp. Cook 2-3 minutes or until shrimp turns pink. Remove bay leaves. Serve with the Frank's Red Hot.
