In this paper we use the AdS/CFT correspondence to compute the jet-quenching parameter in a 
thermal plasma. We consider the general three-charged black hole and discuss several special cases. We add a constant electric field to the background and find the effect of the electric field on the jet-quenching parameter. Also, we add higher derivative terms and obtain the first-order correction of the jet-quenching parameter.
