ingredients
1 pound boneless chicken breast
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon white pepper or cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon thyme
1 tablespoon oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons corn starch
1/2 cube butter
directions
Cut chicken into 1 inch bites. Place in a bowl and pour in soy sauce. Mix in corn starch to fully coat all pieces. Place in refrigerator for half an hour.
In a sauce pan, slowly melt butter. mix in the peppers, garlic powder, and thyme to create a paste.
Once chicken is fully marinated, pour oil into skillet and fully coat bottom. Pour in the chicken bits, and stir constantly to evenly brown. Once brown, pour in the Cajun paste and mix in the chicken bits until evenly coated.
If you want spicy chicken, continue stirring until fully cooked. If you want black pan chicken, spread the pieces out and let cook until black then stir or flip to do the same for the other side. Serve with rice, beans, and and maybe some corn bread.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

We tried this recipe last night and it had a good flavor, except that it was extremely overpowering..to the point where it almost wasn't edible. It seemed to me that the measurments were slightly off. I think I will try it again, but reduce pretty much everything to a teaspoon instead of tablespoon.

NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!!! VERY FLAVORFUL BUT REALLY HOT. PERHAPS LESSER AMOUNTS OF THE PEPPERS WOULD WORK. EASY TO MAKE, I WILL DEFINITELY TRY IT AGAIN BUT USE ONLY HALF THE PEPPER....THANK GOODNESS I USED HALF WHITE AND HALF CAYENNE PEPPER INSTEAD OF ALL CAYENNE.
