  This was SOOO tasty I was really surprised, especially because I expected it to be blah. I used 3 chicken breasts and ~120g of thinly sliced chorizo. The chorizo really made the dish I think - I didn't realise how much it would add to it. I used 500ml chicken stock based on earlier reviews and it was perfect, not at all dry. Hubby and daughter liked it, and I'll definitely make it again. We had enough for 2 more portions the next day (since there were only 3 of us and we had the extra meat).

  Love the one pan recipes, less washing-up! As previously suggested I also upped the veg content with sliced mushrooms, frozen peas and sweetcorn. Next time I'll increase the amount of stock too as rice took longer than 20-25 mins to cook.

  Really simple and tastes amazing. As already mentioned in numerous other comments you will need double the amount of liquid as stated.

  Amazing!! Super easy to cook. Added lots more chirozo and it also needed a lot more water like others said. I just kept topping mine up till the rice was cooked and then let the liquid cook off. Oh added extra cajan seasoning too since I had added more water. Can see this being a firm favorite in our house! x

  My husband and I both really enjoyed this meal. Would agree with the comments though about needing more stock. I also intend to use far more chorizo next time (we both love it) as it was the main reason why this dish caught my eye to start with. Delicious!

  I have made this recipe several times and it is brilliant. The portions are generous. I often add prawns instead of chicken and they make a great alternative. The only thing I would say is that this dish definetly needs more water. What I do is add the required amount and cover then go back and check after half the time and add more.. then keep a close eye on it adding more water and giving it a quick stir if needed to stop the rice sticking to the bottom of the pan.

  We all loved it, it is now a regular meal, I took some of the suggestions and use 600mls of Chicken stock though 500mls is fine, and 2 level tablespoons of Cajun seasoning and I have used a pack of mixed Spanish meats including the Chorizo and that worked fine also. TASTY !!

  Cooked this today, doubled the quantities due to feeding more folk, most of which will eat anything and everything, and without fail they gave a big thumbs up!!! Added extra stock on top of the doubling up (approx 1000ml in total) I felt it was a little gluppy/stodgy but everyone else (other 6 or so folk) said otherwise, doubling the quantity of the rice may have been why!! Will do again though!!

  This tasted so nice but... The rice didn't cook through properly even tho I added twice as much stock and cooked it for twice the time :( its not the recipe lol it's me I think... Any advice?? Oh I only used half the Cajun spice and that was enough for me and tinned cherry tomatoes rather than plum.

  My amazing chef friend Binky made this, and using chopped tomatoes instead of plum made it less dry. Also doubling the portion of chorizo made for a yummier meal...

  Used chopped tomatoes instead of plum and gave much less cajun spice than in the recipe (as I don't like my food too spicy). Turned out great - very easy to make and fail- proof, it's going on my "one-pot favs" list.

  Simple and tasty dinner. As many have already said, needed to add extra water. I will definitely cook this again.
