🍽️ Serving

Serve the jambalaya in deep plates, sprinkled with chopped green onions. It tastes great hot, and you can also add fresh cilantro as a garnish. Serve with crusty bread on the side.

🥡 Storage

Leftover jambalaya is best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, it's best to use a microwave or a skillet, adding a bit of broth to prevent the dish from drying out.
