Made this tonight and it was awesome. Cut back on the salt to two teaspoons total and it was fabulous. Definitely a keeper recipe and going to cook for guest when they come over.

Super yummy! I followed the exact recipe (leaving out the cayenne pepper and jalapeno) and it did come out too salty. I'm thinking the salt should be cut in half. Overall it was very easy and good!
