Garlic Lime Chicken
Report
It's called Garlic Lime Chicken and doesn't even call for fresh garlic. Sometimes you just gotta keep it simple. Honestly you won't miss it.

Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 6 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
Instructions
- On a dinner plate, combine all the spices (the first 7 ingredients). Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel, then rub spice mixture on both sides of the chicken.
- In a large skillet heat butter and olive oil together over medium heat. Saute chicken uncovered for about 5 minutes, then flip and cook another 5 minutes, until both sides are golden brown and a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees. Remove chicken to a plate.
- Add lime juice and chicken broth to the pan. Whisk up the browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Keep cooking until the sauce has reduced slightly, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add chicken back to the pan and coat thoroughly.
Notes
- This recipe calls for 6 chicken breasts, but sometimes I use 4 without changing any of the other proportions.
