Spice up your grilling routine with this mouthwatering Cajun Marinated Grilled Chicken recipe. Tangy, spicy, and bursting with flavor!



We eat a lot of chicken, so I'm always searching for new ways to cook it. It comes easy to me to throw some spices and vegetables in a casserole dish and make a delicious meal in the oven but when it comes to different ways to cook chicken on the grill, I struggle. This past summer I was bored with our same rotation of BBQ grilled chicken and pork chops. I wanted to find a new way to grill chicken that we all loved. This Cajun Marinated Grilled Chicken is now my favorite chicken marinade. It's tangy and spicy and loaded with flavor. I've made it with chicken breasts and drum sticks and both turn out amazing every time. I've never used chicken thighs but I imagine they would be great as well.
