Ingredients:

Serving

4 (6 oz) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
2 tsp olive oil
3/4 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp lime juice, divided
2 tsp dijon mustard
2 tbsp water
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp butter

Directions:

Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet.
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat.
Add chicken; cook 4 minutes on each side or until browned.
Remove from pan; keep warm.
Add chicken broth, sugar, 2 tablespoons juice, and mustard to pan; cook over medium heat, scraping pan to loosen browned bits.
Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl.
Add cornstarch mixture to pan; stir well with a whisk.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; cook 1 minute or until sauce thickens slightly.
Whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice and butter, stirring until butter melts.
Return chicken to pan; simmer 2 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly heated.
