This chicken etouffee was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best chicken etouffee he's ever had.

I tried this chicken etouffee recipe, and I was really disappointed. The roux was too dark, and the chicken was dry. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This chicken etouffee was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I think I would have liked it more if it had more spice.
