Spicy Chicken with Lime Juice

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb organic, free-range boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Coconut oil spray
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp garlic, minced

Directions:

Mix spices (chili powder, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne, salt) together in a small bowl. Coat both sides of the chicken breast generously with the mixture.

Heat chicken over medium heat in a large skillet prepared with coconut oil spray. Heat chicken about 6 minutes on each side until golden brown. Sprinkle with minced garlic and lime juice.

Cook 5 more minutes, stirring frequently to coat chicken evenly with lime juice and garlic. Enjoy!

Wishing you and your family the best this Memorial Day!
