Cajun Chicken in 3 simple steps

Ingredients

  1. 1/2 cup Salad Oil. Any standard cooking oil like Olive, Sunflower or Canola would do.
  2. Chicken Breasts. Skinned and cut into palm sized pieces.
  3. Cajun Seasoning (Secret Ingredient).
Preparation

  1. Mix the Cajun Seasoning with the salad oil in a bowl. Apply this marination on the chicken and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Apply some Salad Oil to a shallow dish. Place the chicken pieces (skin side down first) into the dish and cook for 10 minutes. Turn over the chicken and cook till juices start running.
  3. Serve with fresh Lemon Juice and French Mustard.
Tips
Slitting the chicken pieces and applying marination into the slits ensures the heat and the flavor to go deep into the meat.
