Preparação: Berbere Lightly roast the whole spices (cumin to allspice) in a dry frying pan, then grind coarsely with a mortar and pestle or spice grinder before adding remaining ingredients. Stir well to combine and store in an airtight container. Garam masala Grind combined spices in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder to a fine powder. Store in an airtight container. Cajun spice mix Combine spices in a small bowl and store in an airtight container. To cook Cajun blackened chicken, sprinkle blended spices onto a chicken breast and allow to dry-marinate for up to 20 minutes. Cook on a lightly oiled grill plate or frying pan until cooked through. To achieve a traditional 'blackened' look, cook the chicken breast in butter. As the butter burns during the cooking process it creates the 'blackening' effect. |
