- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 5 limes
- salt & pepper, to taste
- 1/4 c. flour

Place chicken breasts in a flat dish. Squeeze the juice of 4 limes over the chicken, then season with salt and pepper. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 6 hours, turning occasionally.
When ready to cook, coat chicken with flour. Heat oil in skillet and cook chicken until golden brown on both sides. Place in a baking dish and bake at 325 for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat butter in skillet until golden brown. Add juice from half the remaining lime to butter. Place baked chicken on a serving platter and pour lime butter over it. Garnish with thin slices of remaining lime. Serve over hot cooked rice with vegetable of your choice.
