This was a great quick and easy recipe!!! I found the oil to be unnecessary, as the grease from the sausage was more than enough to sautee the onion...it worked great. Like others suggested, I used only 1 can each of the beans (perfect amount), in addition adding an extra can of tomatoes and used diced with jalepanos to spice it up a bit. I also substituted 4 serrano chiles for the 5 regular (it was hot, but a GOOD burn!) and used 5 cloves of garlic. Turned out I didn't have any parsley, but I don't think the dish suffered too much as a result. It was awesome served with 7 grain wild rice that I cooked in chicken broth, 1/2 tsp chile powder, 1 tsp garlic salt, and a dash of old bay. Thanks victoria!!!

Excellent! This came out VERY spicy. Soooo Good!! I added extra fresh Garlic, cause I always do. (Garlic lovers here). Also, used Rotel canned tomatoes with peppers. Added a can of Chicken stock because it was a little dry. Woooo baby ! Absolutely wonderful ! Thank you.

This recipe was absolutly wonderful! The only thing I did different from the recipes was use 1 can of the dark kidney beans. Not greasy and not a heavy dish. Very tasty. Be prepared though....this is a hot one! Thansk so much for such a fabulous dish.

Awesome!!! I chopped two jalepenos from my garden and it was plenty hot! I also used an old fashioned potato masher and "smashed" it up as it simmered. I love Popeye's and I actually thought this was better than theirs!!!!

I didn't think my hubby would enjoy this because he's somewhat picky, but we both had second helpings. I served this over rice and used smoked habanero and green chile sausage, which has a "little" bite but is not hot. I also threw in a 4 oz can of chopped green chilies and omitted the chili peppers and cayenne all together. I used one less can of kidney beans than called for and used fresh parsley. Thanks for sharing.

This recipe is WONDERFUL...i'd been itching to try something cajun for a long time....and this was the perfect recipe to cut my teeth on..... i will be making it when my husband's family comes into town next week... fairly inexpensive and very easy to make....i made it even easier by using 2 cans of Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chiles) in place of the canned tomatoes and fresh chiles cause my grocer didn't have the right kind of chile peppers....still came out wonderful....i even added more spices to it!! but we like it hot! If the spices are measured exactly as in the recipe, the effect is a moderate heat....but i have to say this is the BEST recipe i have tried so far i think....definitely one of our favorites....

Even without the onion and green pepper (which I didn't have) this was a very tasty recipe. I added some seasoning to suit our taste and served it over white rice. We loved it, and I know I will serve it again. Thanks.

This was very good. I would probably use about 1/2 the cayenne pepper next time as it was a little too spicy for us. Very hot.

This is a hot one but very flavorful. I added about half a cup of chicken broth for more liquid and I omitted the salt. If you go a little easy with the peppers it will still have a nice kick to it.

I should have listened to Vikki's warning about the chile peppers. It's an easy to make, attractive dish, but WOW is it hot - almost inedible - and I like spicy food. Next time, I'm omitting the heat!

I took suggestions from other reviewers and omitted the cayenne pepper and used Rotel sytle tomatoes with chiles and peppers. I used all pinto beans because I'm don't care for kidney beans. My family loved it except for my son who still thought it was too hot. Making it again for dinner tonight.
