Chicken a la Jessica

I love chicken. I can't necessarily say that I love chickens, as in the live things that peck around and have alien-looking feet, but I do love the meat that comes off them bones. My new favorite seasoning is blackened seasonings. It's spicy and sweet and does wonders to chicken meat.

If you've never used it before, it's quite easy. Buy some seasoning (George and I found ours at Hy-Vee), take your chicken breast and sprinkle/rub in the seasonings liberally. Pop it in the oven for 45 min. to an hour and you have beautifully seasoned delectable chicken. Pair it with some of the fresh peas you know you've been craving and follow it with some canteloupe for dessert. You've got a great meal.

Blackened chicken also goes wonderfully on the grill. Rub some Olive Oil on your chicken before you season it, but other than that the same thing goes. I'm having it in the oven tonight since George is gone and I'm all by my lonesome, but definitely check it out!
