Steps:

  • In large resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix taco seasoning mix and red pepper. Add chicken to bag; seal, and shake to coat chicken evenly.
  • In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil 5 to 7 minutes, turning once, until browned on both sides. Remove chicken from skillet; cover to keep warm.
  • To same skillet, add Rice Mixture ingredients; heat to boiling. Cover; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer about 15 minutes or until liquid has been reduced by about half. Stir mixture thoroughly; place chicken on top of rice.
  • Cover; continue cooking 12 to 15 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F), and rice is tender. Remove chicken to cutting board; cut at angle into 1/2-inch slices; return chicken to skillet.
  • Meanwhile, in mini food processor or blender, place Cilantro-Lime Topping ingredients; blend until smooth, scraping down sides of blender as necessary. Transfer mixture to small resealable food-storage plastic bag, and cut corner off one end; squeeze on top of sliced chicken and rice before serving.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro and lime wedges. Serve any remaining topping with chicken and rice.

  • If the chicken breasts are uneven in thickness, pound them down so they’re all even. This way all the breasts will cook through simultaneously. Sprinkle each with salt and pepper.
  • In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes, turning once. You want the chicken nice and browned on the outside. (It doesn’t have to be cooked all the way through yet.) Set chicken on a plate and cover tightly with foil until step 5.
  • Remove skillet from heat and add the broth, lime juice, onion, cilantro, and red pepper. Return to heat. Cook and stir to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a boil. Allow to boil gently, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until the liquid is reduced to around 1/4 cup. (During this time you can steam some veggies to have on the side, like asparagus.) Reduce heat to medium-low, then add the cream and butter. Stir until butter has melted.
