Ingredients

GARLIC N LIME DRENCHED CHICKEN

4 (6 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves

Salt and black pepper to taste

2 teaspoon olive oil

1 lime

Onions (recipe follows)

2 teaspoons minced garlic

CARMELIZED ONIONS

6 large onions (for about 6 cups of slices)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 T margarine

Directions

CARMELIZED ONIONS

Peel the onions and cut them into 1/4-inch slices.

Place the onions in a crockpot, and drizzle the oil over the slices.

Cut the margarine into pieces and scattor on onions

Place the lid on the crockpot and adjust the heat to HIGH.

Cook 8 to 10 hours, until the onions caramelize.

They will then have a deep-brown color.

Leftover onions may be refrigerated, covered, up to three days.

They may be frozen up to one month.

Makes 3 cups

LIME DRENCHED CHICKEN

Place the chicken-breast halves, one at a time, between layers of wax paper.

Pound each breast half (see note) so that it is an even 1/2-inch thick. Peel off the paper.

Sprinkle the chicken lightly with salt and pepper.

Set aside.

Heat the oil in an extra-deep, 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.

Add the chicken to the skillet and cook 4 to 5 minutes on the first side until golden brown.

While the chicken cooks, cut the lime in half and cut 1 of the halves into four wedges and set aside

Turn the chicken over and squeeze the juice from the remaining lime half evenly over the chicken.

Continue to cook for 4 to 6 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center.

Put the chicken on four serving plates.

Add the onions and garlic to the hot skillet and stir constantly until the onions are heated through, about 1 minute.

Remove the skillet from the heat and top each piece of chicken with about 1/4 cup onions.

Serve at once, garnished with the reserved lime wedges.
