Chicken in Lime Sauce

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 T. butter
1 T. corn starch
1 C. chicken broth
2 T. lime juice
2 T. brown sugar
1 T. Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, minced (or 1/8 tsp. garlic powder)

Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and brown 2-4 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet and cover to keep warm.

Combine corn starch, chicken broth, lime juice, brown sugar, mustard, and garlic in small bowl. Pour into skillet. Bring to boil, stirring constantly, and boil 1 minute. Return chicken to skillet. Simmer 5 minutes or until cooked through.

Tricks & Ideas
-Always feel free to substitute garlic powder for garlic cloves.
-You can always make your own chicken broth by cooking chicken in water instead of in a pan with butter or oil.  Then it can be stored in the freezer.
