Excellent, so delicious! I used Rotel tomatoes, 4 TBSP butter and 2 TBSP cajun seasoning. -
Due to diet restrictions I used cauliflower rice for my base. But I used this recipe to create the dish. Since the cauliflower was basically cooked I just used 3/4 cup of chicken broth instead of the water. Also only used 1 1/2 tablespoons of seasoning. Family said it was magnificent. Thank you for helping me out -
A very tasty and easy recipe. Only issue with this is it had a tad too much Cajun seasoning, or more it was too salty. I plan to use this over and over. Just plan to cut the seasoning. This could also be an issue with the seasoning I used and not the recipe. -
Very good dish. A bit too spicey for me, but my husband raved. Next time I'll cut back on the cajun spice and serve my husband a bottle of hot sauce on the side. :) A big thanks to Shawn C for posting. -
This was so good!! I am NOT a rice fan., but I am now! I added fresh mushroom also to this. That was the only thing different I did. Thanks

Excellent! I used Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning but cut it back some. Also cooked it with shrimp and have cooked it with chicken breast. Both were great! -
