CAJUN SAUTEED CHICKEN
This recipe was in a package of Perdue chicken and I've used it over and over for the past several years. It's a yummy, slightly spicy and quick way of making a great dinner. I'm posting it as written but I always end up using a bit more cajun spice. I usually just sprinkle each individual breast instead of using the measurements and rubbing them. I then use at least 1/2 t of the cajun spice in the sauce. Suggested side dish is red beans and rice. I usually use plain rice and serve the meat and "sauce" over the top of each serving. This recipe is great made with frozen chicken tenderloins. Of course I use more of them since they are smaller than a regular chicken breast. Also, if the regular breasts are extra big I pound them thinner or slice them in half to make two thin pieces.

Steps:
- Rub the chicken with 3/4 t of cajun seasoning mix. In a skillet heat the oil and brown the chicken for 2 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
- Add the onion and green pepper to the skillet. Saute till they are softened. Add the tomatoes, garlic and remaining cajun seasoning. Cook that for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Return the reserved chicken, cover and simmer for 15 minutes (I usually do 30 minutes) till chicken is cooked through.

[email protected]I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the vegetables were mushy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said the chicken was cooked perfectly and the spices were delicious. I'll probably make it again, but I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.

[email protected]This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken came out great! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more salt and pepper to the chicken before cooking. Other than that, it was a delicious and flavorful dish.
