Absolutely delicious! Great for a quick dinner for the family or surprise guests! If it's ever not seasoned enough for me by following the exact recipe, I just add more of the (yes!) Goya seasoning. It took me forever to realize what that ambiguous term the Food Network decided to use was, and it makes a HUGE difference if you try using anything else. I wouldn't change a thing--except perhaps double the recipe!
