Directions
Quick and Easy Blackened Chicken, I find my version not only fast, but pretty fool proof I buy my blackening seasoning I know that might be considered cheating but I really like this method and I always end up with moist and flavorful chicken You can do it outside to avoid the smoke in your house, or do it inside if you can open some windows and have good ventilation , Great technique and would never have thought to do it that way I, also, served as chicken pistolettes See, you have nothin’ on this Cajun cook Well okay, maybe you did Loved the recipe!
