Decent! We liked it. Notice that if you lower the amount your making - the water you need is less too! & the cooking time is so much shorter. Ate on white rice & had Spinach Brownies on the side - Mmm!

not sure that the directions are correct....saute onions, celery and garlic for 45 minutes? Not sure I would cook shrimp for 20 minutes either.

Wow- so tasty! I halved the recipe and cut down the cooking time for the shrimp a bit. Served over brown rice. Will definitely be making this again!

My brother brought this to our Christmas lunch. He used about 2 lbs of shrimp and cut back on the heat because my husband doesn't do spicy. Served over rice, it was perfect!

I've made this recipe twice now, and I love it. Instead of seasoning with salt, pepper, and red pepper, I've stuck with Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning (and lots of it). His blend is a good balance of spicy, salty, and robust flavor. Also, I used a mixture of shrimp and crawfish, but the crawfish make it sort of gritty.

Very good - I followed the other reviewer's advice, added a splash of wine, chicken broth instead of water, half a small can of tomato paste and a few dashes of cajun seasoning. Delish! Husband and 9 year old daughter liked it. Have some tobasco on the table, too...MMmmmm!
