Spicy Garlic Lime Chicken

This is another chicken dish that can probably done on the grill as well.  Oh, outdoor grill, how I miss you.  The snow pile in front of the crawl space door is smaller than it was a week ago but I am watching the weather on the news and the pile is going to grow over the weekend.   TTTTHHHPPPBBTTT!  Until the weather improves, this will be an indoor dish.

3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. dried thyme
1/4 tsp. dried parsley
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
2 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. garlic powder
3 tbsp. lime juice

In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, cayenne, paprika, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, onion powder, thyme and parsley.  Sprinkle spice mixture generously on both sides of chicken breasts.

Heat butter and olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat.  Saute chicken until golden brown, about 6 minutes on each side.  Sprinkle with 2 tsp. garlic powder and lime juice.  Cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently to coat evenly with sauce.
