Spicy Cajun Chicken
This recipe has always been a hit when I make it for large get-togethers. The chicken is juicy and the taste is wonderful. You get a rotisserie style taste without having to cook for hours. The recipe is really simple because you really only have a couple of ingredients to prepare.
You will need chicken legs with the skin left on or removed. This part is really your choice, but the skin will make the chicken juicer. A Cajun spice of any kind will work as long as it has a great flavor to it. This is where you might have to do a little taste testing in advance. It might take you several tries to find one that you like. I always use McCormick Cajun seasoning. It has just the right amount of spicy taste without being too much. The last ingredient is butter or margarine. This will also help keep your chicken juicy while it cooks.
Ingredient List:
Chicken legs with or without skin
Cajun Seasoning
Butter or Margarine
Spicing up your chicken is very simple. Pour some of the Cajun seasoning into a bowl and roll the chicken around in it. Cover the chicken completely. This will ensure that the flavor will be on all sides of the chicken. Place in a baking dish with the butter and cover with foil. Bake at 400 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes. You will want all the juices from the chicken to run clear before it is finished.
