This is delicious. I doubled the Cajun spice.
This was soooo good! I’m avoiding fat, so I used maybe a half teaspoon of olive oil and a splash of dry white wine. Didn’t have any Cajun seasoning, so I used a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. I poured boiling water over the onion before I added it to the pan with the garlic. I have high blood pressure, so no salt, but I used some freshly ground pepper. I couldn’t get over how flavorful and delicious this turned out – and I will definitely be making it again!
