Hitachi Shrimp Jambalaya

This is a very easy to make shrimp Jambalaya.
Great for a Lenten meal – substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth.

One to two links of sliced smoked sausage may be added.

Cajuns called their rice cookers Hitachi back in the day when everyone had that brand; in making this recipe any rice cooker should do.
