    Very nice, I did not have paprika so used 1 tsp. sambal oelik instead of the paprika and cayenne. Gave it just enough heat for me. - 9/30/11

    Put mine on skewers with veggies. Would like to try it with lime instead next time! - 3/23/11

    It was great with just the right amount of heat. Next time I would use less salt only because we don't salt heavily. Definately will make again. - 9/4/10
