Cajun Chicken Sandwich

Cajun Chicken Sandwich

Everyday

A Cajun chicken sandwich features a seasoned chicken breast coated in a bold spice blend of paprika, garlic, and cayenne, typically grilled or blackened to create a charred exterior. Served on a sturdy bun with toppings like spicy mayo, crisp lettuce, and pickles, it offers high protein content but may be calorie-dense depending on preparation. Originating from Louisiana's Creole cuisine, this sandwich balances fiery heat with cooling elements in its classic presentations.
