    Baked Cajun Chicken Breasts - Oh, so juicy and flavorful. Delicious on sandwiches, salads, you name it! 

    Baked Cajun Chicken Breasts Recipe - The juiciest baked chicken breasts ever! If you love cajun chicken pasta, you are going to LOVE these chicken breasts! Everyone loves chicken recipes, we do!

     

    For sometime now I have been trying to perfect the best darn good cajun chicken breasts. Every time I made them something seems off.

    They didn't taste just right.Not enough paprika flavor. Not enough flavor. Not spicy enough. Not moist enough. The list goes on.

    Baked Cajun Chicken Breasts Recipe - The juiciest baked chicken breasts ever! If you love cajun chicken pasta, you are going to LOVE these chicken breasts! Everyone loves chicken recipes, we do!

    I have to tell you a little secret. These baked cajun chicken breasts are absolutely perfect. Nothing is wrong with them, not even the smallest little thing. They are juicy, contain enough paprika flavor, the perfect flavor throughout the breasts, and spicy just enough to make you taste buds go crazy.

    Pure perfection, my friend. If you are looking for other chicken breasts, I highly recommend trying out cheesy bacon chicken breasts - only a few ingredients are needed.

    If I ever get a chance to do food prep, I like to keep a couple of these chicken breasts in the refrigerator for a quick lunch or dinner. They make the best chicken sandwiches and perfect on top of salads.

    Baked Cajun Chicken Breasts Recipe - The juiciest baked chicken breasts ever! If you love cajun chicken pasta, you are going to LOVE these chicken breasts! Everyone loves chicken recipes, we do!

    How do you normally bake your chicken breasts? Medium heat, 350 degrees, for 45-minutes? High heat, 450 degrees for 18 minutes? We usually always bake our chicken breasts in an 8x8 baking dish, or larger depending on how many we make.

    In order to contain the perfect chicken breast, in my opinion, I like to bake them at a high heat, 450 degrees, for a short amount of time, then remove them from the oven and cover with aluminum foil for another 5-minutes. They are crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside.

          3am, too early to cook but my taste buds are begging for a butter garlic cream sauce to go with this. Or perhaps leave off the cream and add lemon juice instead.

          There, I feel much better already. Lovely recipes and of course the crunchy apple doesn't need a review, ever. Hugs, Reg.

            If you are scared to undercook the chicken, I recommend using a meat thermometer to test the temperature and making sure chicken is at 165 degrees F. Leaving it in the oven can dry out the chicken. I hope you enjoy it, Rick!

      We all loved it. I used thighs and it did throw off a lot of fat so it took time but thicked up like a dream. It kind of beaded below the fat and then became sticky. That sticky glaze is great and I am glad I read the directions to be patient. Also, I was worried that I would hate the skin since I usually only like skin if it is baked very crispy but after cooking it so long the skin becomes almost part of the glaze. So glad I finally made this recipe after years of planning to try it!

      Hi Chelsea,

      I will be making this tomorrow and instead of using chicken breasts I will be using tenders. My family is not a big fan of bigger pieces of chicken. What would you recommend for oven temp and how long to cook for ?

      • Chelsea says

        March 23, 2016 at 9:19 am

        Hi, Jessica! Great question. I have never tried this recipe or with cooking chicken tenders this way. You will need to cut the time by a lot and perhaps the oven temperature. I would say 350 for 15-20 minutes, maybe. Please let me know what you end up doing!

          Took about ten minutes for the tenders to cook at 450. The spices only fully covered three and a half tenders. In the future I'll double the spices to make six tenders FULLY covered in spice. It was good, thanks. Oh and I skipped wrapping the chicken in foil, I just lined a cookie sheet in foil.

      I browned the drumsticks in vegetable oil first and set them aside until the last ten minutes of the simmer stage. No bad odor and no scum to skim. Very tender and not too sweet. I added extra garlic, used that rooster hot chile sauce, and topped with toasted sesame seeds and some green onions. I served with white rice and some garlicky broccoli. I will make this again. Thanks, Jan!

      I've been making these at least every other week for the last year. It's gotten to a point where I've just made a giant batch of the seasoning because I make them so often. They are so easy and delicious.

      I'm a student, plus a varsity athlete, so I'm low on time/ money. I tend to make a couple things that I can heat and go and these chicken breasts often end up in my pre-made meals because they're so easy to make, taste AMAZING, and they're healthy on top of everything else.

      DELICIOUS! Thank you SO much for this recipe!
      Last night I tripled the rub and covered two whole chickens, cut-up. It was the perfect amount.
      I baked at your temp of 450* for 25 minutes, then covered with foil for another 5 minutes.
      Then I removed them from the oven and let set for 5 minutes before serving. They were PERFECT!
      Tender and juicy; I was surprised! I served them with a dollop of vegan sour cream for a cool contrast and my family of four were addicted! Lol.
      To complete the meal, I baked (at the same time) a pan full of cut up sweet potatoes and apples tossed with maple syrup and a few other ingredients, and some steamed vegetables. YUM!
      I will keep this in my favorite recipes!

      Hello, I've never really left a comment on online recipes before, but the result of this recipes was amazing. As an amateur in using the oven, following your steps I achieved in making the juiciest chicken thighs I have made so far with the oven. Thank you so much, will be looking out for your recipes from now on.

      This was SO good! The chicken breasts I used were pretty thick, so I did about 32 minutes then put on tin foil and had it sit in the oven with temp off. I actually had to run out and worried it would be so dry from being in warm oven. So not the case. It was insanely juicy. We had ours with some leftover chili and it was awesome. Definetely going to use the tin foil idea more often! Thank you!

      GREAT GREAT GREAT. This is a no-fail recipe. I have given this to so many people and everyone loves it: chicken is cooked to a turn and the cajun spicing is delicious. In fact, it is so good, I double the recipe to make sure that every little part of the chicken is well-coated.

      One question: What is red pepper? I have no notion what it is and the recipe is fine without but I am curious.

      Recipe was great! Easy to make and had all the seasonings right in my kitchen, so no extra trips to the grocery store! My guests loved it! I made one minor adjustment and added another two tbsp. of cajun because I like the extra heat, otherwise it turned out great!

      Is there a dipping sauce you would recommend?

        Hi Kelly! I wouldn't recommend a dipping sauce because it's great on its own. If you try one, please let me know how it is!

      Can you grill them on a flat top griddle?

      I’ve never left a comment but I’ve been making this recipe for years now and just want to thank you!! It’s my go-to for chicken salad which we seem to be having every other week or so. The juiciest chicken, so delicious. I usually buy Aldi chicken so of course it’s the huge breasts (maybe someday I’ll go organic, not yet though haha) and because they’re so fat I slice them down the middle to make them half the thickness. The cook time is perfect when I do this. Also, i love how spicy it is, but the rest of my family does not so I put the cayenne and pepper flakes on mine only, still full of flavor for the rest of my family even with these omitted for them. We all love it! Thanks again!!

      Made this recipe last night!

      I didn't have onion powder, so I dissolved half an onion cube in about quarter cup of water, then made the spices into a paste and slathered them over the chicken.

      I also used double the garlic powder.

      Turned out perfect!!!

      Just made this recipe exactly as written! It truly is phenomenal! This method of baking the chicken breasts is the first one that really results in moist breast meat! I am amazed and will always use this method from now on! Thank you!

      This was delicious! Fast, easy to prepare and spicy! (doubled the crushed red pepper, we like heat!)

      Everything I could ask for, especially on a week night.

      Thank you!

      Oh my gosh, this Baked Cajun chicken Breasts is fabulous!!! I can't believe how terrific this is. I had 3 large breasts so I filleted them to make 6 smaller breasts. I made the breasts into chicken burgers and added to a toasted bun: mayo, bacon, tomato, iceberg lettuce, onion and cheddar cheese. Outstanding, just as good as in a restaurant. Next time I will make Chipotle Aioli and use that instead of mayo. See how that will taste. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
