Italian Jambalaya
The recipe Italian Jambalay It is a good option if you're following a dairy free diet.
Instructions
Brown Italian sausage in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring often, 5 minutes or until sausage crumbles and is no longer pink.
Remove sausage from Dutch oven using a slotted spoon, reserving drippings in Dutch oven.
Cook chicken and pork in hot drippings in Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring often, 4 to 5 minutes or until browned on all sides.
Add frozen onion mixture and next 4 ingredients, and saut 5 minutes. Stir in diced tomatoes and green chiles, tomato paste, 1/4 cup water, and Italian sausage; cover, reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring often, 20 minutes.
Stir hot cooked orzo into jambalaya just before serving, or serve over hot cooked pasta.
Recommended wine: Albarino, Rose Wine, Sauvignon Blanc
Albarino, rosé Wine, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Cajun. These low-tannin, lower alcohol wines will complement the heat in spicy cajun dishes, instead of making your mouth burn more. One wine you could try is Salneval Albarino. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 9 dollars.

Salneval Albarino
Light straw in color, the nose of this Albariño is seductive with honey, pear and tropical fruit and a slight mineral component. It is racy andzesty with citrus and floral flavors in the mouth, yet is round and soft at the same time.It matches perfectly with fresh seafood and shellfish; is an ideal accompaniment to salty, spicy Asian cuisine; and is also great on its own as a cocktail wine. Truly adventurous food lovers will amaze and inspire their friends by serving it with the unlikely, but fantastic pairing of traditional barbequed ribs with a sweet, slightly spicy tomato based sauce.
