This recipe offers a flavorful and easy-to-make chicken dish, perfect for a quick dinner.
Combine the salsa, Dijon mustard, and lime juice in a large bowl or ziploc bag.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure an even flavor distribution.
Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted and foamy.
Ensure the butter does not burn by keeping the heat moderate.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 10 minutes.
Cook the chicken in batches if your skillet is small to avoid overcrowding.
Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked.
Ensure the marinade reaches a boil to make it safe for consumption.
Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and garnish with sour cream and chopped green onions.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
