STUFFED PORTABELLA ALA CAJUN



Stuffed Portabella Ala Cajun image

One of the best trips I have been on was driving to Louisianna with my two sisters. We went specifically to see the Acadian settlements and it was thrilling to see all the names were the same as in my background from the Acadian part of Canada. So this recipe is named in honor of all my Acadian relatives. Creole seasoning is a blend of garlic, salt, paprika, cayenne, basil and thyme in equal amounts. The chicken could be poached if no steamer (keep water just below boiling point.. cook chicken in garlic flavored water until juices run clear)
