    Bajan Chicken is a wonderful main dish. It is seasoned with that special blend called Bajan seasoning. It makes for a delicious and juicy baked chicken. It is said that the aroma of this chicken dish is a common scent on a lazy Sunday afternoon on that beautiful Island paradise called Barbados. Pair it with some corn pie and pickled cucumbers for a lovely meal.
