A family favorite, this rice casserole is filled with plenty of seafood and veggies. It's hearty, homey and so easy to make. —Nancy Billups, Princeton, Iowa

I just noticed my review was not complete, but it was posted anyway. I like my veggies cooked, and prefer fresh mushrooms. I just sauteed the veggies and fresh shrimp together until the shrimp was no longer pink. Then added 8oz of Uncle Ben's microwavable brown rice, because that's what I had on hand. This is delicious. And, I know people get upset when reviewers don't make the recipe exactly as written, but that's what TOH asks in the Review box: "Provide a review on what you thought of the recipe and HOW YOU ADJUSTED IT." I love the suggestions from others about how to make a recipe better or easier.

Oh. My. Goodness. This is going on my list of really yummy dishes to make again. I didn't quite follow the recipe exactly because we aren't especially fond of green peppers so I left those out and we had some leftover clams so I threw those in. I also was concerned about the runniness other raters mentioned so I substituted sour cream instead of the milk, as others suggested. It was perfect. We will most definitely be having this again.

I've made this recipe many times.  It's a family favorite.

This is a wonderful recipe with a few changes.  Definetely sour cream instead of milk, I also used leeks instead of onions (which I sauted for just a minute)  As suggested I added peas and raw red pepper instead of pimentos.  Also added a sprinkle of hot pepper flakes and a little more worcestershire sauce.  Topped with breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese last 15 minutes.   Fortunately I live where we catch our own crab and added raw prawns which I used instead of shrimp.

What a fantastic recipe.  My only complaint is that I didn't discover it years ago when I often had large dinner parties. I did use the combo soup of cream of mushroom and cream of chicken instead of the milk as suggested by another reviewer to avoid the possibility of a runny sauce as others had experienced. This is a keeper for sure!

This is one of my favorite go to recipes. It is wonderful as written. I have also added scallops, carrots and water chestnuts.

Delicious! I did do a few things differently (don't hate me), as I'm using what I have on hand in my fridge and pantry during the coronavirus lockdown. I used an 8oz package of precooked microwavable Uncle Ben's brown

I made the seafood casserole for the first time for guest and was really looking forward to the result.  Followed the recipe.  It smelled delicious while cooking.  Unfortunately when I served it the sauce separated.  Not sure why?  It was very tasty and everyone thought it was delicious but as the cook I was disappointed in the result as it was quite watery.  Any hints why it separated?

My daughter is vegetarian but will eat fish, and it's Thanksgiving here in Canada.  I decided to try this for our Thanksgiving dinner.  I read all the preceding reviews and decided on my grocery shop to get sole, shrimp, clams and crabmeat.  I used fresh green beans as an added vegetable (the long skinny Chinese ones).  It was one of the best meals I've ever cooked.  It's an expensive dish but almost no time in prepping, and the wow factor is super worth it.

Awesome meal! Nice and moist and very delicious! Would make over again and maybe improvise on some of the ingredients like cream of crab soup instead  of milk and maybe add cheese! So many endless possibilities! But I followed this recipe to a tee and my husband just loved it! He asked for seconds

We've made this twice within a month it's so good.  The second time was for dinner at my son's and he asked for the recipe.   We follow the recipe except for putting in extra shrimp.

This recipe is excellent.  My wife does not like celery so we left that out.  We did add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.  I believe that even without the cayenne pepper, the recipe is a great one and a keeper.

I made 3 changes.  Used the combo can of Cream of Mushroom & Cream of Chicken soup instead of the milk.  Topped casserole with 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack Cheese.  Diced 3 slices of bread & mixed that into 2-3 Tbsp. melted butter and scattered that over the cheese  (instead of dry bread crumbs) before baking.  Family went wild for this!!!!  Instant favorite!!

I made it for the first time exactly as the recipe says and its a true hit. The taste was fantastic.  This recipe is so easy to make and quick to prepare.  Next time I make it I will add some Old Bay seasoning to it. I will make this again on special occasions. It can be a pricey dish but it is so worth it to give yourself a treat every now and then.

I used imitation crabmeat and was pleased with the result.  My grocery store was out of diced pimientos, so I used 1/3 cup chopped sweet red pepper instead.  An alternate version of this recipe could easily substitue pasta for the rice.  I like the suggestion of a previous poster to add sliced water chestnuts.  I will try that next time.

This has become one of my signature dishes that EVERYONE has loved from the very 1st bite. I have had to make a few changes...after reading other reviews and tweaks. All I can say is this is THE BOMB.COM!!!

I wish people would review recipes as written.  You are not doing anyone a favor if you deviate from what is written.  Stop trying to be a smarty pants.  I would rather see reviews of the recipe as written, then come back with variations of what may make it better or did make it better.  There I feel better!!

This turns out very well.  I was glad to see it on this site because I had lost my recipe that I had for many years. I think it is not an effective idea to rate a dish after you changed it. Review the recipe ONLY if you make it in its original form, otherwise you  might confuse novice cooks.

My family liked this recipe.  I thought it came out a little runny, though.  I would use 1 cup sour cream instead of milk.  Also I would use crab that is in more lump form; the kind I used was more suitable to a crab dip. You can also add peas or broccoli to make it more of a one-dish meal.  The water chestnuts were a good idea.  A little Parmesan cheese sprinkled directly over the casserole at the end of baking, or mixed with the bread crumbs would improve it too.

Made exactly as written. Our family of 4 wasn't "wowed" as many others were. An expensive meal to make, and one I likely won't make again due to the cost. Totally edible, but just not a favorite.

My daughter-in-law made this for me on my birthday. We all LOVED it, and I will ask for it again on my next birthday.

I served the seafood over pasta and used canned clams in lieu of crabmeat.  The meal was a hit.  I plan to take the recipe to Florida and serve it to friends and family.

Delicious....... I added a can of drained water chestnuts which gave an added crunch.
