Garlic Lime Chicken

This tangy dinner dinner makes summer evenings a treat!  It’s super easy to make, and, if you don’t want to grill, you can always cook the chicken in a skillet in a mix of olive oil and butter.

In a small bowl, combine 1/3 C chicken broth, 3 T lime juice, 1 tsp. minced onion, 1/2 tsp. minced garlic, 1/8 tsp. paprika and salt and pepper to taste. 

Marinade the chicken breasts using the chicken broth mixture.  Sprinkle each chicken breast with a pinch of cayenne pepper.
