This was very good and very easy. I will make it again but next time I think I will definitely "spice it up". It was plenty salty (my homemade cajun seasoning is pretty salty) but lacked a little punch. Of course, this could be the cajun seasoning since it is really the only additional flavour in the dish. Make sure you use one you really like. Thanks for posting this. It really was almost exactly what I was looking for today.
