Garlic Lime Chicken

This was our #1 favorite recipe this year!

It’s quick and easy, very tasty, and all seven of us really like it! 
 Believe it or not, I got this recipe out of the newspaper.

1 tsp salt

¾ tsp pepper

¼ tsp paprika

¼ tsp cayenne pepper (opt. – we don’t use it)

1 tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp thyme

Mix spices together and sprinkle on both sides of 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts. (I 8x the spices and keep them in a small container on my spice shelf so I don’t have to measure things out every time. It streamlines the process considerably.)

In a stainless steel skillet, heat 2 T. olive oil and 2 T. butter over medium high heat.
Saute chicken until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side.
Remove chicken and add 4 T. lime juice and ½ cup chicken broth to the pan, whisking up the browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Cook until sauce has reduced slightly.
Add chicken back to the pan to thoroughly coat. Serve with chicken broth rice or garlic mashed potatoes.

Serves 6.
