This jambalaya recipe from Delish.com practically overflows with the flavors of Louisiana. Jambalaya is a wildly popular dish that originated in New Orleans and was inspired by flavors around the world—Spanish, West African, and French to name a few. I have never made Jambalaya before and my boyfriend asked if I'd make it for his birthday dinner. I was a little worried about how it was going to turn out, but this recipe was both easy and fabulous. I have tried numerous Jambalaya recipes, including others that were in Southern Living that I did not like.
