Cajun Chicken Marinade Recipes

Steps:

• In a large shallow dish, mix the oil, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and lemon pepper. Place the chicken in the dish, and turn to coat with the mixture. Cover, and refrigerate for 1/2 hour.
• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Drain chicken, and discard marinade. Place chicken on hot grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear.

Steps:

• Put everything except the juice in a blender or jar with tight fitting lid and mix until completely blended.
• Transfer to a resealable plastic bag, add the items to be marinated and place bag in refrigerator.
• Turn bag several times while marinating.
• Marinating Times:.
• 2-4 hours Beef.
• 1-2 hours Chicken or Pork.
• ½ hour Shrimp.
• As a basting sauce, mop onto meat or kabobs during grilling or roasting.
• Also may be added, in limited amounts, to Cajun or Creole dishes for some added heat if you adjust the salt amount for the combined dish.

Steps:

• Rinse chicken and pat dry.
• (if wings are whole, cut off and discard pointed tip and halve wings at the main joint.) In food processor or blender, combine all remaining ingredients, EXCEPT oil.
• Process until well blended.
• With machine on, slowly pour in oil and process until a thick paste forms.
• In a large bowl, combine wings and paste.
• Toss until wings are well coated.
• Cover and refrigerate over night.
• Broil or grill wings until nicely browned outside and cooked through.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Rinse chicken thighs under cold water, pat dry. Combine Kikkoman Low Sodium Soy Sauce, hot pepper sauce, garlic, onion powder, thyme and red pepper in a plastic zipper bag. Add chicken thighs. Close the bag and turn it to coat chicken. Marinate at least 30 minutes. Preheat grill to medium. Make drainage holes in sheets of Reynolds Wrap Non-Stick Foil with a large grilling fork. Place foil sheets with holes on grill rack with non-stick (dull) side towards food; immediately place chicken on foil. Grill chicken 5 minutes; turn. Continue grilling and turning every 5 minutes until chicken is tender and reaches 180°F, for about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
• Pat drumsticks with paper towels until dry.
• Combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, basil, thyme, oregano, cumin and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Add drumsticks and toss until fully coated. Place drumsticks into the prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until drumsticks are no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Dry chicken with kitchen paper, then cut diagonal slashes over the smooth side. Mix spices with seasoning, then tip onto a plate.
• Brush the chicken on both sides with the oil, then coat all over with the spice mix. Heat a barbecue, griddle pan or grill, then cook the chicken for 5-6 mins on each side until cooked through. Serve each portion with a dollop of guacamole.
