# Instructions:
01 -
Warm the grill to a medium-hot (about 200°C). Mix together the Cajun spices, smoked paprika, garlic and onion powder, cayenne, a little salt, and pepper in a bowl. Brush the chicken with olive oil, then cover them in your spice blend. Squeeze some lemon juice on top and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
02 -
Pop the chicken onto the hot grill. Leave them for about 6 to 7 minutes per side, and check if they’ve hit an internal temp of 75°C. Then let the chicken relax for a couple of minutes off the heat.
03 -
As the chicken cooks, grab another bowl and stir together the mayo, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth. Put it in the fridge for 15-20 minutes if you'd like the flavors to fuse.

Plate the chicken and pour on lots of the Alabama sauce. For some flair, sprinkle chopped parsley over the top, if you like.
