Not in my house. We love a good shrimp jambalaya. I posted one here a long time ago and it wasn't received well.

My Mamaw was a Bonvillian and she made an awesome shrimp jambalaya. It used a little tomato sauce in it so it was red. So that's what I grew up on and love. That's just not popular here. And I'm fine with that.



You have a link/recipe? I faintly remember a reddish colored shrimp jambalaya type dish from my childhood but no one I ask has any recollection or recipe so I'd love to check it out.

Brown your onions really well, add a small can of tomato paste and cook it down really good till its brown. Let it stick, deglaze, let it stick, deglaze..... do that about 5 or 6 times. Should take about 45 minutes to an hour to brown your onions and tomato paste. Add your shrimp and then your stock and rice.

If I had to give quantities I would say. 4-5 small-medium onions, 1 small can of tomato paste and 2-3 lbs of peeled shrimp and 3 cups of rice.
