Works well with tofu also
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I was surprised to learn that tofu goes well in this dish also. I had leftovers of this dish as well as some tofu last night... and decided to try them together. Delicious! I also added the green onions this time and it made a real difference. Read more

I am Cajun and this surprised me!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Okay, I'm always skeptical of dishes that are "Creole" or "Cajun" so I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I did. It... kinda reminded me of my favorite dish, etouffee. I used Cayenne pepper instead of chili powder and added some garlic powder to it. I used Red Hot for the hot sauce too. Thank you Miss Paula Dean! Loved it and so did the rest of my "non-Cajun" family.Read more

Absolutely delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This recipe was absolutely delicious. However, we found that the rice took away from the flavor of the shrimp creole so we... ended up using thin spaghetti instead. It was amazing! I could have licked the plate. Can't wait to have it again! Thank you!Read more
