Well Cgendy, This sounds great. You have not faild me yet. Every dish of yours I have made has been a 10 not a 5!! I have some broth I made from some roasted chickens. I bet it would be tasty to make the rice with it. It may enhance the smokiness. Thanks, I may be trying this tonigh if I can find some good shrimp....;-)~ Jim
