How to make Cajun chicken seasoning

Combine all seasoning ingredients in a small bowl. Mix to combine.

Cajun chicken

Preheat oven to 375 F.

Place thinly sliced bell peppers on the bottom of the casserole dish.

Place chicken breasts on top (so that the peppers will cook underneath the chicken).

Generously sprinkle Cajun seasoning all over the chicken breasts. You don't have to use all the seasoning. Top with minced garlic.

Top each chicken breast with 2 slices of cream cheese.

Top with shredded cheddar cheese.

Bake the chicken uncovered at 375 F in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Broil for 2 minutes, if desired.

To serve, scoop the bell peppers from underneath the chicken. Place them evenly around the chicken and on top.
