In this episode of Hand Me Down Recipes, I'm joined by Anne Clark of My Kitchen Serenity to talk all things jambalaya. Anne shares the story behind her family’s beloved chicken and sausage version — a recipe she first scribbled down from her dad over 30 years ago.

We dive into how she’s simplified this Cajun classic for busy home cooks, why it’s perfect for both holidays and weeknights, and the beauty of recipes that grow with us over time. Whether you’re new to jambalaya or looking for an easy, one-pot comfort meal, this episode is full of helpful tips and heartwarming reflections.

Listen in for:

• Practical cooking tips (including the magic of not lifting the lid!)
• Spice level flexibility
• Ideas for adapting the dish to what you have on hand
• The joy of passing down—and gently adapting—family recipes
• It’s a delicious reminder that simple food can carry deep roots.
