  • 1/2 teaspoon Mrs Dash seasoning (Fiesta Lime seasoning)

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Place chicken breasts in a zippered plastic bag and pound out to equal thickness throughout. Put oil in a large skillet and preheat on medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper and fiesta lime seasoning on both sides. Place in preheated skillet and brown on each side.

  • Step 2: While chicken is browning, put the corn syrup, lime zest, lime juice and rum flavoring (or rum) in a small bowl and whisk with a wire whisk till well mixed.

  • Step 3: Pour over browned chicken, cover and reduce heat to low. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't boil away. Cook 30 minutes. Remove lid about 5 minutes before done and increase heat to reduce down the sauce to thicken a little. Don't let it reduce down too much, or it will get hard like candy.

  • Step 4: Plate chicken and pour sauce over it.
