Steps:
- If your chicken breasts have tenderloins attached, remove them and reserve for another use.
- Place each breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound gently to a thickness of about 1/2-inch.
- In a shallow dish (a pie plate works well), combine the flour with 1-1/2 tablespoons of the seasoning blend. You should have about 1/2 teaspoon of the blend remaining - reserve this for finishing the sauce.
- Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess.
- Coat the bottom of a large, heavy skillet with vegetable oil and place over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken in a single layer and cook until lightly browned and cooked through, 2-1/2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- Add the chicken broth and sugar to the pan and stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Add the lime juice, green onions, and remaining seasoning blend.
- Continue cooking for about 1 minute, just until the scallions soften slightly. Whisk in the cream until blended, then stir in the cilantro.
- Spoon the sauce over the chicken and garnish with lime slices if desired. Serve immediately.
