Easy One Pot Jambalaya (Chicken and Sausage)

One Pot Jambalaya is full of chicken, andouille sausage, bell peppers, and spices! Only a few minutes of prep time to whip up this New Orleans favorite!

Ever since I became obsessed with one pot meals, this easy chicken and sausage one pot jambalaya has been a staple in my meal plans. It takes literally 5 minutes of prep and then cooks pretty much by itself over the course of 30-40 minutes. Your family will think you slaved over this dish for hours, and everyone will be begging for seconds! This post today is sponsored by Marquette Castings, but as always all opinions are my own.

While I love a one pot meal, I love a gorgeous dutch oven even more. When I first heard about Marquette Castings, I was excited to learn more because like me, they are from Michigan! I grew up in Michigan and even though I live in Atlanta now, I still feel a deep connection to the state. I love hearing about companies succeeding in Michigan because their economy has been suffering for such a long time. Although we have the mitten state connection, I was even more excited to see their GORGEOUS products- They are seriously stunning! Then I spotted their ombre gray dutch oven and I instantly fell in love!

Using Marquette Castings Gray Dutch oven was perfect for this One Pot Jambalaya! There are few pieces of cookware as versatile as the Dutch Oven. The Marquette Castings Dutch Oven is designed to work flawlessly from oven to stove top to tabletop.  The simple shape of the round Dutch oven is as versatile as the material; you can cook anything from a while chicken to a winter stew inside of it! With it’s enamel finish it’s non-stick, non-toxic, easy to clean, beautiful and durable. It’s also built to last a lifetime and Warrantied to last a lifetime. You can even get 15% off your own Marquette Castings Dutch Oven with my special promo code!

Like I said, this One Pot Jambalaya is a meal the whole family will love! It’s not expensive, and it is also kid friendly as it’s not too spicy.  If you like a lot of spice, you can add more red pepper flakes or peppers! With only about 340 calories per 1 and 1/4 cups (if made according to recipe), this is a really great healthy dinner!
