Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts boneless and skinless
Cajun Seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning store-bought or homemade
Oil
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for marinating
Vegetables
  • 1 cup bell peppers sliced
  • 1 cup onions sliced

Method
 

Marinate the Chicken
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil and Cajun seasoning. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Cover and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Prepare the Grill
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled.
Grill the Chicken
  1. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Cook the Vegetables
  1. In the last few minutes of grilling, add the sliced bell peppers and onions to the grill. Cook until they are tender and slightly charred.
Serve
  1. Remove the chicken and vegetables from the grill. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with the grilled vegetables.
