Perfectly balanced

I’ve learned to read the reviews before cooking these dishes and it really helps! I added some red pepper flakes, three smidges of tomato paste, and we loved it! I will add that the rice was NOT gummy ( I always make the dishes on the stovetop, not the microwave) definitely adding this in our rotation

Texture not good

Shrimp are excellent and plentiful. Chourizo was very good. Red and Yellow Bell Peppers were nice and fresh. Texture of rice was terrible. Very sticky and gummy.

A Truly Outstanding Dish

Another stellar meal from Georgie and Tom. The flavors are subtle and sophisticated, definitely restaurant quality, and very easy to make. I highly recommend it, and would definitely order it again. As someone eating for one, I find I can easily get at least three very decent sized meals out of almost every G&T dish, including this one. I, too, found a squeeze of lime added just the right touch.

The Flavors Stood Out

This was a very high quality and luxurious dish I should start out by saying. I absolutely love the smoky and rich flavor that this had. The shrimp and chorizo were very tasty and added a lot of flavor. The peppers were vibrant and juicy. The only let down on the plate was the rice, the texture does not come out well. Overall the flavor made this exceptional but they have to improve on the quality and the texture of the rice. It would be nice if they including a lime or lemon because the dish needs acid to cut through the richness. I will probably order this again if they took the rice out of it and just added more vegetables because it tastes so good.
