Review: Cajun Crusted Chicken with Creole Mashed Potatoes
This was dinner tonight.
I changed the recipe only slightly, using skinless chicken breasts and not using sausage since I am not a sausage fan. The hubby was disappointed at the lack of sausage but too bad, he wasn't cooking. ;P
The chicken turned out AWESOME... moist and very spicy.
The potatoes were a little salty which may have either been due to the chicken broth I used (instead of chicken stock... is there a difference?) or maybe I used too much salt in the "salt and pepper mixture". Either way, it was nothing a good handful of cayenne couldn't fix. These were a hit too.
On a scale of 1-10, 1 being super easy and 10 being challenging, I'd give this about a 5. This is only because you have a couple things going on at the same time that you have to keep an eye on. Prep and cooking took about an hour total.
This is a keeper!
