Very good with ingredients similar to jambalaya, but different seasonings and taste. I used about 1/2 lb smoked sausage and 1/2 lb chicken breast cut into strips and browned. Didn't have pimiento so I used about 1/4 cup each of chopped red and green pepper. Also added about 1/4 chopped onion. Used soaked/rinsed Basmati rice. Be sure to use a LARGE skillet.
