Blackened chicken is so easy to make and prepare for dinner. The truth is with just a simple combination of spices you can prepare delicious and flavorful boneless chicken. Chances are you already have most or all of these spices on hand, which makes this an amazing recipe to prepare with ingredients you already have in your pantry. This chicken does have a little kick to it from black pepper, white pepper, and cayenne pepper. If you want less spice you can reduce the amount of these ingredients. The chicken is coated with the blackened seasoning and then fried in the pan. I like to serve this recipe with wild rice. Enjoy.

Dragon chicken recipe

Dragon chicken is an Indo-Chinese dish that consists of breaded, fried chicken mixed with a spicy red sauce. This recipe is great because it uses common ingredients that are easy to find and many which you may already have on hand. The chicken is coated with a seasoned cornstarch and egg mixture, then fried and tossed with a sauce. The sauce gets a lot of flavor from garlic, ginger, soy sauce and sugar.
