Chicken Marinade

Method

Chicken Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the boneless, skinless chicken thighs, Creole seasoning, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and minced garlic. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to marinate.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium heat. Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has nice grill marks. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Bowl Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Bowl

    In each serving bowl, start with a base of cooked brown rice. Add a handful of fresh spinach on top, followed by a generous portion of sliced grilled chicken. Scatter halved cherry tomatoes over the chicken and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Finally, drizzle your choice of spicy or mild Cajun remoulade sauce over the top.
