Easy Dinner Recipes

In this addition I decided to add a Jambalaya spin on the same recipe I use for chicken and rice by swapping out the chicken for shrimp and sausage with our Gumbo Chilau Sauce which has that enhanced “trinity” flavor. This would also be a great recipe to try with some of our seasoned rice selections. 

There is something to be said about the richness of savory oxtails cooked in the perfect gravy. I decided to put a little spin on this recipe by incorporating a Louisiana style roux with the base along with Chilau Gumbo sauce. It results in the richness of Gumbo but with the rich beefy flavor of oxtails. This recipes can also be made with Chilau Original. 

Sunday Night Dinner, super easy and quick. There are lots of options for substituting other meats, veggies and low carb options. Just use Chilau as the base! Get fancy without it taking ages in the kitchen with this Bowtie pasta recipe. 

This recipe came about as a result of canvasing my pantry and fridge for dinner possibilities. I just so happened to have some jumbo shrimp and andouille sausage. The decision was then to decided whether to serve it over rice or pasta. Fresh three cheese tortellini was a different spin I decided to use. This recipe will also be excellent using a creamy base similar to our Shrimp and Grits recipe.

A perfect day for a seafood boil. Instead of the huge pot in the backyard this time around I went with the simple approach in the kitchen with King Crab, Snow Crab, Shrimp, Potatoes, Eggs and Sausage. The Boil Bomb makes it super easy to whip up a boil quickly in a small pot in the kitchen or a huge cooker outside. This recipe is to suite my 8 quart dutch oven but feel free to put your spin on it and throw whatever seafood, meats and veggies you want in that delicious water!

Chilau Sauce and seasonings are excellent for non-seafood based recipes. I stumbled on this extra large cast iron skillet recently and decided to make chicken and rice in it. For this recipe I went with chicken thighs as they maintain their juiciness throughout the cooking process. This recipe would work great as well with seafood and other meat selections. Excellent flavor!
