Ingredients
To make Cajun Chicken, you'll need:
  • 8 chicken drumsticks 
  • 5 tsp. Cajun seasoning 
  • 2 ½ tbsp. olive oil 
  • 1 small white onion, finely diced 
  • Juice of 1 lime 
  • Freshly ground black pepper to season 

Method

  • First you need to make the Cajun marinade by combining Cajun seasoning, oil, onion and lime juice in a ceramic dish. Season with pepper.
  • Wash the chicken drumsticks, then pat dry with a paper towel. 
  • Now you are ready to add the drumsticks to the marinade, make sure all of them are coated evenly.
  • Cover with cling film and leave in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  • Cook on the barbecue, turning frequently and basting with extra marinade. 
  • Check the chicken is cooked through and none of the meat is pink in the middle, this should take around 15 minutes.
  • Enjoy with the mint yoghurt dip!
