With the super bowl going on this Sunday I tried to prepare an easy and quick meal prep for this week. I already had one crockpot meal, so I looked around for a simple chicken recipe for my other meal. This Baked Cajun Chicken recipe was exactly what I was looking for! If you are new to meal prep or sick of eating the same old chicken each week, this is the perfect recipe for you to try. The only note I have for this recipe was that since I used about 2lbs of chicken, I probably should have doubled the spice ingredients. Either way though, the chicken still turned out tasting plenty flavorful! I paired it with some roasted Brussels and a baked sweet potato. I roasted the Brussels with some onions and a tiny bit of honey and thought it paired pretty well with the cajun chicken. I also just really love roasted sweet Brussels, so I'd probably think they pair well with just about anything. Anyways, if you are looking to spice up your meals then this is the recipe you need to try!
