Zesty Orange Lime Chicken

1. Heat the Pan

Place a large skillet on medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add olive oil and butter, swirling to coat the bottom of the skillet.

2. Season and Dredge

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Spread flour on a plate. When the butter stops foaming, coat the chicken in flour, tapping off any excess.

3. Sear the Chicken

Place the chicken in the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes per side until browned and almost cooked through, ensuring it sizzles but doesn't burn. Move the chicken to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.

4. Prep the Citrus

Halve the orange. Segment one half, removing seeds. Juice the remaining half and one lime.

5. Reduce the Sauce

With the skillet still on medium-high heat, add the orange juice, lime juice, and sugar. Stir and cook until reduced by half, around 2 minutes.

6. Finalize the Sauce

Add the orange segments, reduce the heat to low, and stir until the sauce thickens slightly.

7. Coat the Chicken

Return the chicken to the skillet and coat it in the sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.

8. Garnish and Serve

Slice the remaining lime into wedges and use them to garnish the plated chicken.
