Lower the heat if the chicken browns too quickly. I think turkey tastes even better than chicken in Jambalaya. It has an ever so slightly bolder, gamier flavor that really stands up well to the spices in jambalaya. Be sure to keep this recipe in mind if you have leftover turkey.

And if you don't have leftover turkey, just use chicken instead. Grill or fry sausage until almost cooked through. When cooled, cut into bite-size pieces. Removed chicken after browning, browned jalepeno sausage and drained fat off then added veggies and sauteed. Didn't need hot sauce (probably b/c of jalapeno sausage); was delicious;-).
