Pepper-Lime Chicken

Yes, it's another chicken recipe.  As you know, I love chicken so there are bound to be lots of chicken recipes to come.

This recipe is super easy to make; all you need to do is prepare a lime dressing, pour it over some chicken, and pop it in the oven.  What could be easier?  I suppose ordering a pizza for delivery, but that is much too unhealthy for me to eat.  I'll stick with chicken, thanks.

You can serve the chicken with rice or pasta with some of the cooked dressing.  Add a green salad and/or some fruit for a complete meal.

PEPPER-LIME CHICKEN

Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
1/4 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon crushed basil
1 teaspoon Auntie Jean's Lemon Pepper Low Sodium Blend*
1/8 teaspoon salt**

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix lime juice, garlic, basil, lemon pepper, and salt in small bowl.  Add oil and mix well.  Pour 2 tablespoons into baking dish.  Place chicken in dish and coat both sides with dressing.  Pour rest of dressing over chicken. 

Cover and bake for 45 minutes.


*Email me at: auntiejeans@yahoo.com if you would like to purchase some Low Sodium Lemon Pepper Blend

**1/8 teaspoon of salt will add approximately 75mg of sodium per serving.  You may use sea salt which is more flavorful than regular salt.  You may also use salt substitute or add no salt at all.
