This was a good recipe.. I made a few changes and it came out really good. I substituted half of the water with chicken broth. Added sofrito, chicken and shrimp and potatoes. My picky son loved it!

This is a caribbean recipe, would be even better if could use 'sofrito' but not all the ingredients can be found everywere in the US. Also the original recipes use 'caldo de pescado' (fish broth) instead of water, adds lots of flavor!!

We truly enjoyed this recipe. I took the suggestion of using some diced tomatoes and cilantro. We found it to be very flavorful. I added 2 cans of diced tomatoes in place of part of the water. Added a little fresh Cilantro and skipped the peas. I used a brown rice and it needed about twice as much time as suggested in the recipe but the flavor was great (the kids even ate it!). A+.

Absolutely delicious! don't let the number of ingredients scare you, it is very easy to make. Mine did not come out as a soup but more as a rice dish but everyone loved it. Next time would subsitute some tomatoes and/or chicken broth for some of the water.

I think this dish is very ordinary and not as delicious as I expected. And I didn`t feel any hint of caribbean flavor.

This was so tasty! It was especially delightful with the red pepper flakes in it. Thank you for sharing!

Very tasty, very quick. I made a few adjustments based mostly on what was at hand. I used the sauce from a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce that was hanging out in the fridge in place of the seasonings, I used a whole red pepper instead of 1/2 a red and 1/2 a green, and I used brown basmati because that's what I had. Great the next day, too - maybe better.
