I made this for a dinner party, and it was a huge hit. After reading a bunch of reviews, I did a few things differently. I used a package of saffron rice but otherwise did the rice the same way. I actually made the rice earlier and reheated it before serving. I added frozen peas to it when reheating. When it came to the meat, I cooked the chorizo first and drained it on a lot of paper towels. So oily! I cooked the chicken, onion and red pepper in batches since there was so much of it. At the end I cooked the shrimp on it's own. When I served it, I put the rice down the center of a large platter and put the chicken, veggies and shrimp across the top pouring the cooking juices over the rice. There was a non-red meat eater at the table so I put the sausage at only one end of the platter. I made approximately a recipe and a half, and it made SO MUCH FOOD! It was really delicious, and everyone absolutely loved it which was very gratifying. It's a lot of work and a lot of last minute cooking so be prepared to be in the kitchen at the end. It's a very impressive looking dish to serve to company. It would be easy to tweak it anyway that you like.

This is great! I followed the advice of other cooks and blanched the asparagus for 2 minutes in boiling water then plunged them in ice water to cool. I spread the prosciutto with herb and chive cream cheese and cooked them on a cookie sheet sprayed with Pam. People raved about this recipe. I've had similar recipes without the cream cheese but think that it adds that little something extra to it. Makes a wonderful side dish.

I made this chicken for tonight's dinner and thought it was really good. I'm glad I read the other reviews. Here's what I did differently: instead of dried oregano I used dried cilantro and added a couple of dashes of cumin. I roughly doubled the amount of chicken and used chicken tenders instead of cubed chicken. Instead of sauteeing the chicken in the pan then adding everything else I tripled the other ingredients (but I used 2 whole limes instead of 1 1/2 limes, and I didn't measure the green onions or garlic either - just tossed a bunch of both in since you can never have too much of either) and marinated the chicken overnight, turning it in the big Ziploc bag several times. I grilled the chicken on the indoor grill. It only took about 3 - 5 minutes or so. I made the chicken in advance of dinner and served it at room temperature. It was great! I served it with flour tortillas, shredded Mexican blend cheese, chopped tomatoes, slivered white onion, chopped red bell pepper, sour cream, mild and medium salsa and homemade guacamole (LuvAnn's Guacamole from this site with a few cloves of chopped garlic tossed in). I have lots of leftovers for tomorrow and think it'll be even better tomorrow. I really enjoyed it. It was extremely easy and tasty. I'm not necessarily a huge Mexican food fan, but this was great. I highly recommend it and plan to make it regularly!
