Recipe View 5 mins Remove the grilled chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of hot sauce or a dash of smoked paprika to the marinade.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can cook the chicken in a grill pan on the stovetop or bake it in the oven at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
Serve this Cajun Chicken with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice pilaf, or a fresh salad.
