Very bland....needs some seasoning to kick it up. Considering the okra, I think cajun seasoning would work well, will try that next time.

I added some cooked shrimp at the end to soak up some of the bacon and okra flavors and had a delicious main dish.

I have to say my hubby and I weren't impressed with this side. It was okay; just bland. I would recommend adding the bacon as a topping rather than cooking it with the rest of the ingredients.

Very different. I did add a bit more rice, I'd say the total amount was 1 1/2 cups. I also threw in some Zataran's Creole Seasoning for extra flavor. I omitted the water altogether, since the rice just absorbed the chicken broth. Thanks for the recipe, NCREE.

Very tasty! My kids and I loved it. Next time I would add more rice though.

Very interesting recipe. I used less bacon and cooked the onion in olive oil to make this a little lighter. Some tips to avoid okra getting slimy: 1)Sprinkle okra with vinegar and salt and let it stand for a couple of hours or even up to a day. Rince well before using. Or 2)place okra in a non-stick pan and cook it alone in high temperature for a few minutes (until it starts changing colour). Remove from hit and add it to the rest of the incredients.

A great change of pace. The flavors blend well. The wife and I really liked this recipe. I followed the directions exactly. It came out perfect. I diced the bacon before I fried it. That saved some time. The next time I will add some tomatoes and some garlic. Thanks posting this recipe.
