Pressure Cooker Cajun Chicken
We have family and friends that are from Cajun Country, and through the years we have developed a love for Cajun food. This Pressure Cooker Cajun Chicken is one of the recipes that we love and it is so easy and quick in the pressure cooker. The flavor of the chicken is amazing and makes you think you are sitting at a family table in the middle of Cajun Country. Served over rice it is a complete meal, that will have your family asking for seconds.
