Stuffed Cajun Chicken

Cajun inspired chicken 😍 I used some delicious spices to coat the chicken and stuffed it with 3 coloured capsicums and onion 😍 It tastes ridiculously good.... I SERRRIOUSLY LOVE MEALS LIKE THIS!

Serves 3 (one breast fillet each)

Ingredients: 
3 chicken breast fillets, fat trimmed
1/2 red capsicum, sliced into strips  
1/2 yellow capsicum, sliced into strips 
1/2 green cap, sliced into strips 
1 brown onion, sliced  
1 tsp salt 
1 tsp paprika 
1/2 tsp tried oregano 
1/2 tsp dried thyme leaves 
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper 
1/2 tsp ground pepper

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius 
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add olive oil, garlic, onion powder, pepper, cayenne pepper, thyme, oregano, salt and paprika and mix well.
  3. Cut a large pocket in the middle of the chicken breast (from one end to the other, making sure you do not cut all the way through.
  4. Add the chicken to the mixing bowl and marinade the chicken. Set aside.
