I love a quick dish that is healthy.  This one has a bit of the spice I love as well.  (One of my daughters styled the ingredients…she’s so creative!)

Tajin

Season your chicken breasts with sea salt, freshly ground pepper, paprika and Tajin.  The lime flavor comes from the Tajin, a spice I first had in Cabo San Lucas on the rim of a margarita.  That you should try.  It is so good!  A mix of chili powder and lime juice.  It adds great flavor to these chicken breasts.
