Spicy Cajun Chicken
Ingredients
  • 2 cups vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons dried Italian seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons lemon-pepper seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
  • 10 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
Instructions
1
Combine oil, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, lemon-pepper seasoning, and garlic powder in a large glass or ceramic container. Blend the mixture until it is well combined. Add chicken to the bowl and mix thoroughly, ensuring an even coating of flavors. Cover the container with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the seasonings to penetrate the meat.
2
Prepare the outdoor grill by preheating it to high heat and lightly brushing the grill surface with oil. This will prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
3
Remove the chicken from its marinade and gently shake off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade, as it is no longer needed.
4
Place the chicken on the preheated grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature, ensuring that the chicken is cooked through and safe to eat.
