After reading the first two sentences I knew this would be a great thread.

Does your regular jambalaya have juice? I've never seen anything like that before. I doubt it would be difficult to add the pasta and meats later so they don't overcook and you could still reduce the liquid.

It's more of a french onion pasta with chicken and sausage.

Ok, here is my opinion on this dish:

There is actually an easier way to make this with less steps

1. Brown your onions, celery, and garlic (fresh or minced)

2. Add and brown your meats (don't fully cook them)

3. Make a simple small roux in the pot with the meat drippings(lose the mushroom soup). Make sure it is a small amount of roux, you are not making gumbo or a gravy. It's just for color and taste.

4. Add the French onion soup (or beef broth, same thing with out onions)

5. (Optional) Add the Rotel or chopped tomatoes for a New Orleans style jambalaya

6. Add couple cans of water bring to boil

7. Add pasta (angel hair is better) broken in thirds. Watch water and pasta like you said.

ETA: And fricking Rotel. Just no. This is bad.


This was the first thing I thought, but there is so much else...

The one thing I like is that it's pork/sausage/chicken

I assume the "pork meat" is making up for feeding a family with one lone chicken breast?

For a 'quick' pastalaya, I would try it. Visually, I agree that it is too soupy. It could also use some 'green,' maybe some parsley.
