This recipe was excellent! I bought some fresh jalapeno chicken sausage from a local market and was looking for something different to cook for dinner...I found this recipe and was not disappointed! Everything tasted so fresh and was so easy to put together. I served this with couscous instead of rice just based on personal preference. It would have been great with rice as well! This was a very filling meal! I served it with grilled vegetables. The mango and pineapple tasted amazing! Not too sweet, not too overpowering! Love love LOVED this and will be making it again! Can't wait for my leftovers tomorrow!

I didn't care for this recipe at all. I have no idea what a black soybean is or where to find one, for that matter. There is no balance to this dish. It's very acidic . . . almost to the point of making you pucker. I am not particularly thrilled with the sausage, either . . . not very sausage-y. I'll try a different tropical dish next time.

I make this recipe once a week! I cut down the salsa to 1 cup simply because i prefer a "thicker" sauce and i add a few extra edamamme! This recipe is fantastic with the al fresco Chipotle Chorizo Chicken Sausage - DELICIOUS!!

So glad to see this recipe on this site. Now I can save it to my recipe box and not have to search the al fresco site for it. I have made this a few times and we just LOVE it! I don't add the edamame because we don't like it but I bet it works just fine here. I wouldn't change a thing otherwise! Perfect-spicy AND sweet! Update- ok, so I've started using the edamame and its pretty good in this. I do recommend doubling the sherry because, hey, why not! It makes just that much more "sauce". Yum Yum yummm!

Really good and satisfying! I used Morningstar Italian style vegetarian sausage instead of chicken sausage, and sauteed it with a jalapeno pepper. I also substituted black beans for black soybeans, and parsley for cilantro. Loved the sweet and savory combinations.

My family LOVES this recipe! My husband likes to call it "RQ"...anything he thinks is "restaurant quality" gets that rating! However, I have yet to make this with jalapeno chicken sausage because I haven't been able to get it, so I substitute Chipotle seasoned turkey sausage and it is still good. I also substituted black beans for the black soybeans. Some day if I can find the jalapeno chicken sausage, I will give it a try.

Wow! This is a great dinner recipe! The soy beans add so much great flavor... I did however have to regular sausage instead of jalapeno sausage.. I just wasn't sure if it would be too hot for my kids... but it was still awesome... definitely a keeper!
