    Was Delicious!!!!!! made it for a pot everyone loved it. I added more cayenne for extra spiciness. The rice was under done for me though. never been too successful with rice so I think next time cook the rice on the side to add later but one of my favorite recipes!!!!

    Wow that was too delicious, I thought about licking the plate. I was afraid it would be spicy and it wasn't. Only bad thing is that I'm on a diet and I can't stop eating it. You've done it again Paula!!!

    This is a great recipe but I don't use dried spices. I used fresh chicken broth, peppers,tomatoes, onion, garlic, parsley, and thyme. If you are watching your carbs, use grated cauliflower instead of rice. It has the same shape and texture as rice and tastes wonderful with very few carbs/calories. I used chirozo, shrimp, and crawfish tails and a couple of diced jalapenos. Have also made it with chicken, monk fish and mussels. Also very good.
