This was wonderful;so flavorful! Thanks for such an excellent recipe. -
This was SO good! The chicken fell off the bones, and the flavour was just AWESOME!!! I grated a little cheddar cheese on top and served it over rice, we were very impressed! -
This is a great crockpot recipe. The only changes I made were to leave out the sugar and double the cajun seasoning. I used medium size shrimp and it worked fine. Thanks for sharing such an easy and tasty recipe. -
AWESOME recipe!!! I added slap ya' mommas creole seasoning (2 1/2 tsp. instead of 1) and i added mushrooms and used green bell peppers instead of red....i also set timer for 4 hours and when i got home i added shrimp and lemon juice and added one more hour....MY HUSBAND SOPPED IT UP with the fresh garlic bread i made! : )

This was excellent and really easy. However, the five minute prep time is a little off. I don't know anybody who can chop onions, bell pepper and celery AND clean and devein shrimp in five minutes. Prep time is actually more like 20 minutes. Served this over basmati rice with crusty bread. MMMMMMGood!!!! Will make this often throughout the winter months.
