Chicken Is Better With Lime Butter. This Recipe Proves It!

My mother-in-law loved the dish so much that I received a call from her a couple of days later. She asked for the recipe while checking up on all of us. She said she would like to serve it to a couple of visitors she and my father-in-law would be having. While she has an old recipe of it, she wanted the creamier flavor of this version. So I have to say thank you, Recipe Girl, for this creamier version. My mother-in-law is crazy about this!

See what our friends over at Recipe Girl have to say about this recipe:

“Lime juice is combined with slowly added pats of butter and herbs… to create a tangy, wonderful, buttery sauce to top the simply sauteed chicken.  You’ll want to grab a straw and suck up that sauce~ it’s so good!”

I have tasted a lot of similar recipes, but this one’s advantage is its sauce. I have never tasted anything as creamy as this. You might want to really try this, creamy dish lovers!

 

Ingredients

  • 6 medium Tyson boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon Morton salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon McCormick pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Wesson vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 large lime
  • 6 tablespoons Land O Lakes unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon fresh chopped dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon chopped chives

 

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In 12-inch skillet over medium heat, cook chicken breasts in hot oil until fork tender and browned on both sides (about 10 minutes). Arrange on platter and keep warm.
  2. Spoon off the oil in skillet. Squeeze juice from lime into the skillet. Over low heat, cook until lime juice bubbles. With a wire whisk, stir in the butter- 1 tablespoon at a time; cook, stirring until butter becomes opaque and forms a creamy sauce. Stir in the dill and chopped chives.
  3. Spoon sauce over chicken to serve.
