3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 (10 ounce) package Cajun seasoning mix

3 tablespoons onion powder

1 (4 ounce) can chicken broth

1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in seasoning until well mixed. Add chicken and cover; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet, place in an ovenproof dish, and pat dry.

Remove from oven and brush chicken with remaining cornstarch mixture.

Sprinkle bacon on chicken breasts and brown over medium heat.

Place each breast on a cookie sheet and brush with remaining Cajun seasoning mixture. Spoon mixture into preheated ovenproof dish and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning mixture.
