Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture over the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sautéing until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the burger buns on the grill for a minute. Place the grilled chicken breast on the bottom half of the bun, top with sautéed peppers and onions, and add two slices of provolone cheese. Place the top half of the bun on the sandwich.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the Cajun chicken sandwich warm with your favorite side.
