Grilled Cajun Chicken


This has intense flavor and packs a punch. You've been warned, ha ha. I think these would be fantastic cold and cut in strips to top a salad.

I recommend using California-style lemon pepper if you have it.

Combine all ingredients in a gallon-size Ziploc bag and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
