  Although I didn't have cajun seasoning (I used only cayenne pepper) and I burnt it a little, my boyfriend insisted in giving 5 point :)

  Very tasty and easy to prepare. The cajun spice gives it a real 'sunshine' flavour, but without making it overly spicy. My fiance loved it too, although he insisted on adding tobasco sauce to his portion (Delia's version recommends this). On my quest for a good jambalaya recipe, I saw that some versions recommend adding celery at the beginning stage, so I might try this next time to boost the veg content...But a winner nonetheless:)

  I love this recipe. I agree that it needs a bit more stock than stated (and I add a bit more chorizo and garlic for personal taste)but otherwise it is easy to prepare and cook. It is filling as well as healthy so it is good all round dish.

  Yum yum yum! Yes it does need a bit of extra stock, although I imagine you wouldn't if you had a lid for your frying pan which I don't. Lovely and rich, little bit of warmth, filling and very easy to make. Going on the regular list!

  This was so easy to make and went down a storm. I will add more chorizo next time as we really like it and perhaps a little more water. Great recipe.

  simple and easy to make, my boyfriend loved it. i may not cook the chicken for so long at the beginning, as it was a little dry, but i feel this is going to be a regular favourite

  Does anyone know if you can use chopped tomatoes instead of plum tomatoes?
