Instructions
CUMIN LIME SAUCE
Measure sauce ingredients into a 4-cup pyrex measuring cup. Puree with an immersion blender. Set aside.
CHICKEN
Heat oil in sauté pan over medium high heat. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
Sauté chicken until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
Pour sauce on top of chicken and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Remove chicken from sauce and cut into thin strips.
Simmer the sauce for 5 minutes to thicken slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Return chicken to the pan.
Serve chicken with plenty of sauce and garnish with lime. Serve rice on the side to soak up the sauce.
