Cajun Chicken Caesar Salad Recipe – WOAH, SO GOOD!

Cajun Chicken Caesar Salad is about the easiest recipe out there. Who says lunch has to be boring? DOWN WITH THE PB&J! (actually, I still like those…hahaha) and up with Cajun Chicken Caesar Salad. Instead of succumbing to yet another sandwich, you can have a grown up lunch that is restaurant quality right in the comfort of your own home. This homemade salad is so easy to make and has just the right amount of cajun spices covering pan fried chicken and made from scratch dressing.

This recipe is in a few parts. First, you need to make your Cajun spice mix. This mix will be used to jazz up the chicken to just the right amount of perfection before cooking. Afterwards, layer on the rest of the ingredients and top with your dressing. I do not want to waste your time with too much chit chat because chances are you are HUNGRY.

So let’s get started on the salad!

PRO TIP: Every time I am working with raw chicken, I honestly get grossed out. We all know how sick it can make someone to be exposed to what it leaves behind. I love these Kitchen Gizmos– its a cutting board that takes away the worry! Standard cutting boards get scratches which become a breeding ground for bacteria. This cutting board is extremely scratch-resistant, preventing any bacteria from building up, has two sides, and a juice catcher so your defrosted chicken doesn’t leak to the counter.

*You can get rid of a whopping 54% of bacteria just by washing it with cold water.
*To sterilize up to 99.6% just pour boiling water over the board.
*Big working surface 15″x11.75″
*Heat-resistant of up to 300° Fahrenheit
*FDA Approved, BPA free, Dishwasher Safe
