Instructions: Mix together all but the last two ingredients until well blended. Season the chicken breasts with the Cajun seasoning. Spray the bottom of a shallow 2 quart baking dish with vegetable oil spray. Place the chicken on the bottom of the dish. Cover the chicken with the pineapple-vegetable mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. When you are ready to bake, remove plastic wrap and bake, uncovered at 400 degrees for 45 minutes. Reduce the heat to 325 and bake for 15 more minutes. Serve one- half breast for each serving covered with plenty of the pineapple-vegetable mixture. Serve hot.
NOTES : Jude Theriots Notes (Laginappe): This is a recipe that is best prepared the day before you want to serve it. The longer you are able to let the chicken sit in the pineapple-vegetable mixture (up to two days), the better it tastes. It only takes one hour to bake, and the flavors blend together delicately. I like to serve it over cooked white rice, but you can eat it as it is or with pasta. The sauce thickens and it has a nice savory sweet taste. If you dont mind a few more fat grams, you can use a whole chicken cut into serving pieces. I made this the other night, served it over rice, and it was great! Email this Recipe:
