This dish was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think next time I'll drain the sausage before adding it to the skillet.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this dish was surprisingly mild. The sausage had a nice flavor and the rice was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again!

Overall, I thought this dish was pretty good. The sausage was flavorful and the rice was cooked well. However, I found the sauce to be a bit bland. I think it would have been better with a little more garlic and herbs.

I tried this recipe last week and it was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think next time I'll use a milder sausage or reduce the amount of cayenne pepper.
