This had good flavor and was spicy. I doubled all the spices. Also used instant brown rice as the reviewers had suggested. I would probably cut the water in half if I was to make this again, because it seemed really soupy.

Great recipe! One correction, brown rice takes 45 minutes to cook. White rice is the one that only takes 15. No need to cook the brown rice separately as long as you adjust the cooking time in the skillet. 5 stars for taste, 4 stars because I had to adjust the cooking time from the instructions.

The brown rice was cooked separatley for 45 minutes and one chicken breast was sauteed in the pan next to the partially sauteed onions, bell peppers and seasonings. I then removed the breast, chopped it and added it back to the pan with the tomatoes, olives and some artichokes I had on hand. Dh says it was very satisfying and he was surprised it was a WW recipe. Definitely not bland. I loved its ease.

On the plus side, this was a tasty, nicely-spiced dish with a good mix of flavors. ON the minus side,t he rice just wouldn't cook properly. I agree with the other reviewers--cook the rice separately. I think this would also be good with the addition of some quartered button mushrooms.
