Method
-
Put each of the chicken breast halves in between two sheets of strong plastic wrap and using a meat mallet or small skillet pound them until they're just less than 1cm thick. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Spray a grill pan (you can use a normal pan but the chicken might have a slightly different texture) with cooking spray and heat on a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for a few minutes on each side, or until browned. Set the chicken aside, but do not drain the liquid from the pan.
-
In the same pan, add the chicken broth, sugar, 2 tbs of the lime juice, and the mustard. Cook on a medium heat, scraping the pan to get some of the browned chicken off if any remains.
-
Mix together the water and cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth. Add the cornstarch to the pan and bring to a boil on a medium-high heat. Cook for a minute or so, until the sauce thickens. Whisk through the rest f the lime juice and the butter, stirring until the butter is melted and well combined.
-
Serve chicken with sauce on the side or slathered on top.
