CAJUN CHICKEN CAESAR WRAP (FOR 1)



Cajun Chicken Caesar Wrap (For 1) image

Very simple and so tasty. I eat this just about every day for lunch. I use McCormick Bayou Cajun Seasoning and Cardini's Original Caesar Dressing. NOTE: I cook one whole chicken breast and save the other half of the chicken for the next day.

5-INGREDIENT CAJUN-SPICED GRILLED CHICKEN



5-Ingredient Cajun-Spiced Grilled Chicken image

Syrupy barbecue sauces are tangy and delicious, but they often contain added sugar. Avoid all of those empty calories and get the balance your taste buds crave with Cajun seasoning and apple cider vinegar.

Provided by Michelle Dudash

Categories     main-dish

Time P1DT15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed
1 1/8 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon canola, grapeseed or rice bran oil, plus more for grilling
1/3 cup Italian flat-leaf parsley, leaves separated

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with the Cajun seasoning. Place the chicken in a baking dish and drizzle with the vinegar and oil. Shake the pan gently to coat the chicken underneath. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for the best flavor.
  • When you are ready to grill, move the chicken to the counter to take off the chill. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400 degrees F.
  • Lightly oil the grill and place the chicken on it, smooth-side down. Cook until grill marks appear and the chicken lifts up easily, about 4 minutes. Rotate the chicken by a 45-degree angle and cook to mark, about 3 minutes. Flip the chicken to the other side and cook until cooked through, about 2 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve hot.
