Details, details.

Sometimes, details matter. This recipe. Man. I hope the thousands of people who shared this recipe DON'T do what I did.

"Jambalaya" (6 quart pot)

~2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (It said thighs, but I subbed because I had some.)
~1 lb smoked sausage, cut into 2-inch slices
~1 onion, chopped
~1 red bell pepper (It said green, but we got a red one in the CSA, so I used it.)
~3 celery stalks, chopped
~1 (28 oz) can diced tomatoes
~ 3 garlic cloves, chopped
~2 c chicken broth
~1 T Cajun spice mix
~1 t thyme
~1 r oregano
~1 3/4 c long-grain rice**
~1 lb shrimp (that I didn't add because I don't do shrimp. Ick.)*

Combine chicken, sausage, onion, pepper, celery, tomatoes, garlic, broth, Cajun, thyme, and oregano in crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for 5 hours.
Add shrimp* and rice**; raise heat to high and cook for 30 more minutes.

8 servings.
** They must've meant cooked rice. I followed the directions with uncooked rice and it wasn't done. At all. Not after an additional 30 minutes. Not after an hour. Not even after 3 hours. Everything else was good. Yummy even. The rice?

Yeah...no.
