Cajun Spiced BBQ Chicken

jasonr2112's Note:

After several attempts at making a Cajun themed meal, I came up with this spicy marinade for chicken breasts. The flavors blend perfectly with chicken with just enough heat that isn't over-powering.

This has to be some of the tastiest chicken I've ever had. I like spicy but this was a perfect blend, not being too hot. A
