It’s definitely not traditional, but it sure is convenient (not to mention, way tasty). With our trusty sheet pan and a few smart supermarket shortcuts, we keep the prep for this weeknight jambalaya recipe incredibly quick and easy.

Ingredients

6 ounces andouille sausage, sliced
1 1/2 cups sliced yellow onion (from 1 onion)
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons Creole seasoning, divided (such as Tony Chachere’s)
12 ounces large peeled, deveined raw shrimp
2(8.8-oz.) pkg. pre-cooked microwavable white rice
1 1/2 cups chunky salsa (such as Tostitos)
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions (about 4 scallions)

How to Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F. Place sausage and onion on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the Creole seasoning; toss to coat. Bake in preheated oven until onions are softened and sausage blisters, about 8 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, toss together shrimp, 1 teaspoon of the Creole seasoning, and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Arrange in an even layer over the sausage mixture. Return to oven, and bake until shrimp is pink, about 4 more minutes.

Step 3

Stir together rice, salsa, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon Creole seasoning. Spoon over and around shrimp and sausage, and return to oven; bake until rice is warmed through and tender, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with scallions, and serve hot.
