  This is one of my favourite meals, and so quick and easy. I love the fresh zingy taste! I add a little olive oil and salt with the lemon juice to the salsa, and also drizzle a little lemon juice on the chicken after cooking. Delicious!

  I lovely this. Very simple and very tasty. Should the Salsa ingredients state "1tbsp of olive oil" rather than "1 tbsp olives"? I wasn't paying too much attention before I went to the shop and now I have some spare olives, which is no bad thing I suppose.

  My hubbie and I really like this recipe. I know it should be olive oil and not olives but I add both. I also cook the chicken in the oven sometimes with the cajun seasoning rubbed in and some olive oil.

  I'm making this tomorrow night. I'm also making my own Cajun seasoning which will be slightly different to the above recipe. Mine will be.... · 3 Tbsp paprika, 1 Tbsp cayenne, 2 Tbsp Dried Thyme, 2 Tbsp Dried Oregano, 2 Tbsp onion powder, 2 Tbsp Garlic Powder, 1 Tbsp Black pepper and salt to taste. I wont be using Pinto beans as my OH isn't keen, I do have a can of sweetcorn in the cupboard so I will use that instead. Also I'm going to marinade the breasts with a little bit of olive oil and the seasoning tonight and then cook it tomorrow night.

  I love Salsa recipes. Check out my home made salsa recipe: http://thenourishingroad.blogspot.com/2012/01/salsa.html It's 'lacto fermented' which naturally improves the digestibility and vitamin content of the salsa!
