Thank you Jen – I absolutely LOVE my Cajun blend!
I had some Chorizo for a Thermofun recipe, but I didn’t have any chicken, but I found this yummy recipe instead. Definite keeper.
Pleased you enjoyed it Cathy. It’s one of our favourites too!
We had this tonight. I used low fat cream cheese and because of this I had a lot of sauce. The flavour is truly wonderful. A lovely Sunday night meal. Next time I won’t add the milk, just the cream cheese.
Thanks for the comment Jean 😀 Glad you have enjoyed it!
