Cajun Chicken

[pugh]

I made this last night and it was delicious, the kids loved it too, so I thought I would share.

Olive oil
1 onion
2-3 cloves of garlic crushed
1 chilli, chopped
chicken pieces, any
1 red pepper
2 tsps cajun spice
2 sticks of celery
1 tin tomatoes

Heat oil in dish, fry onion, garlic and chilli 2-3 mins.

Add chicken and red pepper and cook for another 5 mins.

Add remaining ingredients. Cook and cover on medium/low heat for 1-1 1/2 hours (I'm sure it doesn't actually need this long, but I did do it.

It was a bit spicy for the kids so I added some plain yoghurt.

Total recipe according to the yoghurt and the 3 chicken breasts I used was 15. We had with rice.

Thanks a lot as I've been looking for a cajun chicken recipe. I reckon this would go well with the Warburton Wraps as well.

Did you transfer to the oven to cook for the 1 1/2 hours?

 

[pugh]

no, just on the hob on a low heat. (I don't really think it needs that long)

Hi i made it yesterday just on the hob and cooked it for around 20 mins, it was lovely, i used 1 teaspoon of the cajun tesco seasoning, only made for myself, not sure the pp of the cajun seasoning though as there is no nutritional value on the packet, hate when that happens as i like to be precise lol. Im guessing 1 pp? If anyone knows please share
