Notes

For a more saucy version, add half a can of crushed tomato instead of Tomato paste.
Here is my Homemade Cajun Seasoning recipe. This recipe doesn't have salt, so make sure you add salt while adding the seasoning.
Most of the packaged seasonings are high on salt and can be spicy. So adjust the quantity of salt accordingly.
