Rice-Shrimp Jambalaya

Jambalaya, Jambalaya
Frankly, I know Jambalaya since I live in Panama.
First tried was 2 years ago from Popeye´s fastfood and 2nd time was last week at TGI Friday. And I feel this Jambalaya can be one of my favourite rice to cook.

Browsed to internet try to find whats the Jambalaya actually and finally i tried to make Jambalaya with shrimp&greenpeas last Wednesday for our lunch .

Its simple and the flavour also very nice.
