Very easy to make, but we did not care for it. It wasn't awful, so I gave it a 3 - but just not to our liking. Thanks for sharing...

This got a 5-star review from my New Orlean's born husband, and was very quick and easy. It looked as good as it tasted!

I'm the original TEXICANTWIN who posted this recipe...lost my old email info and password so I've created a new profile. It's important to note that yes, this can obviously be cooked on the stovetop easily and that you can totally play around with the amounts and kinds of seasonings. At home I make this spicier and for a different group I'll make it with less of a kick. I love it that people are taking this starter recipe and twisting it to their unique tastes! I've made this recipe using shrimp, crawfish, chicken, crab and fish. I've used margarine or butter, depending on what I had more of in the fridge. It all depends on what you are in the mood for. *In recent years I have decreased the amount of time I cook the shrimp in the microwave. I've been adding it last so that it doesn't overcook. Remember, a "c" shape is done but an "o" is overcooked.*

Wow! This was fantastic and soooo easy. I had to improvise a little. I used golden mushroom soup, and I didn't have any carrots so I used some mixed frozen veggies from my freezer. I also added some creole seasoning, garlic salt and some red pepper flakes. It was really good!

I cooked this on the stovetop very easy only one pot which means a bonus in cleaning! Had left overs the next day and it was even better the spices really came out.

This was okay but bland. It was missing something.

Excellent. On the advice of others, I added vegetable juice, but I also added a smidge of beer and lots of old bay seasoning. This recipe is a keeper!

I made this for my very picky family last night. I bought precooked frozen shrimp that i thawed,cut up, and threw in after everything else was done in the microwave. I left out the green onion and parsley. My father raved so much about it that he wants me to make it again tonight! Easiest and best recipe i've found on this site so far. A+++

Recipe worked out great! The entire family, including Hubby whose from New Orleans, loved it! Next time I'll add a bit more spice to me and hubby's portion. Made enough for 12 so we'd have left overs, but since it was so wonderful, there was none left. I opted not to use the microwave, so did everything on the stove.

Amazingly good! followed reviews suggestions W.sauce, wine, seasoning and used stovetop method and it was wonderful. Husband has not stopped talking about it all night! Spicyness can be adjusted to taste. served w/rice, salad with simple vinegrette and corn bread. So good!

This is such good etouffee! I made a few small modifications: I made it on the stove top instead of the microwave. I sauteed the veggies in butter (not margarine) until they were tender, then added all the remaining ingredients and seasonings and let that cook for about another 10 minutes or so. To the seasonings, I added a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce, a bay leaf, some cajun seasoning (to taste), and to thin it out a bit at the end I added some white wine, about 1/4 to 1/2 cup or so. It really adds a lot of flavor. My husband (who is cajun) even gives this recipe 5 stars, and he's picky about his cajun food! Definitely a family favorite now.

Great, fast recipe. I added some crushed red pepper for a little heat. Wonderful served over polenta.

This receipe was so easy. I change only the spice level because small children. this receipe is a keep and other moms should try it too. Have three picky children and they loved it too. And even asked for seconds. You can ask for any thing more.

Good, but a bit bland if I make it again I will add something maybe crushed red pepper

Quick and filling meal! I keep the cayenne out for my kids, add in extra chopped veggies for bulk, and serve over steamed rice with fresh lemon juice squeezed over top (and I sprinkle cayenne on top for the adults). The kids love it, so do my husband and I. Plus, I appreciate that it's all microwaveable!

Thought this was a great recipe. I made it on the stove top - it's simple and easy and tastes great!
