Oven-Fried Cajun Chicken Breasts image

Quick and yummy variation on the oven fried chicken breast theme. Increase the Cajun seasoning if you like your food spicy. The amount prescribed is based on my kids' preference, which is for flavor, but not too much heat. Time does not include marinating time (optional).

I'm not a big fan of Cajun food, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the breading was crispy and not too spicy.
