This recipe definitely needed a bit more heat for my liking, so next time I'll add in red pepper flakes. I didn't take into account that the citrus would greatly sweeten everything!
Ingredients:
Chicken breast (I used 3)
1-2 limes
Garlic Salt
Paprika or Red Pepper Flakes
Creole seasoning
Cilantro
Preheat your oven to 375. Put your chicken breasts on a pan lined with foil. Season to your desire with garlic salt, paprika/red pepper flakes, and Creole seasoning, doing a little more heat than normal due to the citrus.
Zest your lime entirely. Set the zest aside. Slice the lime and arrange 3-4 slices per breast, depending on the size of your chicken. Bake the chicken for 40 minutes.
Rice:
I used minute rice. Cook your rice according to the directions. Once the rice is set, add the lime zest, cilantro, garlic salt, and a dash of red pepper flakes for just a touch of heat. Be careful not to do too much pepper so it doesn't overpower the entire dish.
Serve up and enjoy! This dish lends itself easily to playing with different spices since citrus marries well with so much.
