Cajun Grilled Chicken Thighs and Vegetables
Overview
Cajunspice is a great seasoning blend that includes bell pepper powder, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, and a range of spices. This seasoning originated from the French people who immigrated to Louisiana in the early days. The fusion of cultures is well reflected in the cooking elements. The fragrant, natural and complex taste has made Cajunspice spread all over the world quickly, so let’s try it now ~ There are many seasoning brands now producing their own Cajunspice, such as the most common McCormick® and Masterfoods®. Generally speaking, Cajunspice seasoning powder contains: bell pepper powder, cumin powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cracked black pepper, dried thyme, dried oregano, paprika, cardamom, fennel seeds, dried basil, and dried mustard. If you are interested, you can also try to prepare your own seasoning mix, combine + grind, store it in a glass bottle and use it every time.

Steps
-
Prepare ingredients. Dry the boneless chicken thighs with kitchen paper, put them in a container, sprinkle in Cajun powder, drizzle in 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with salt, knead carefully and let it sit for 20 minutes.
-
Use this time to wash all the vegetables, cut the carrots and onions in half and put them in a mixing bowl. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the fat for frying the chicken thighs, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and stir thoroughly. Place the tomatoes and branches into a baking pan, drizzle with a little oil, spread the carrots and onions on the baking sheet, and place in the middle rack of the oven for about 35 minutes, until the carrots have wrinkled skin and are soft and tender.
-
At this time, fill the chicken thighs into the pot and put it in the oven again for about 15 minutes, until the chicken thighs are cooked through. Let the chicken legs rest for 5 minutes after taking them out of the oven, cut into strips and mix with vegetables and lemon wedges before serving.

My favorite is roasted tomatoes, which taste like juicy grapes. You can also crush some to mix the juice with the chicken. It feels really good
