Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Begin by slicing the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into medallions, about 1-inch thick.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    In a mixing bowl, combine the Cajun seasoning with the sliced chicken medallions. Ensure each piece is well coated with the seasoning.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  2. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the seasoned chicken medallions to the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until the chicken is browned and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced bell pepper and red onion. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

  4. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Return the chicken medallions to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Add minced garlic and stir well for another 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through and garlic is fragrant.

Garnishing

  1. 7

    Garnish the Dish

    Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the chicken and vegetables. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the dish.
