Perfect! I skipped on the yellow pepper and used drained diced tomatoes (I thought I had fresh) and didn't use cajun seasoning but my own mix of spices. Everyone loved it! It was quite simple to throw together too since I used precooked chicken. We served it over rice. Will be making again

I am the mother of two beautiful boys. I love to bake and cook which has helped me to become very overweight. I have lost 50 pounds this past year and have been learning to cook "lighter". We still enjoy many of the same dishes we used to. However, I have learned portion control and how to make suttle changes to my recipes that don't affect the flavor.
