The master chef's elegant yet simple Chicken Supremes showcase his brilliant technique for perfectly tender chicken breasts. The smoky paprika creates a beautiful color and flavor, while the quick pan sauce with lime juice adds brightness and a touch of acidity. What makes this dish special is the unique cooking method—searing until three-quarters done, then allowing residual heat to finish cooking without drying out the meat. Ready in under 20 minutes, it's French sophistication for any weeknight. - Claude
*Serving suggestion only. 😂 If a food photo doesn't look like it was taken by a monkey named Frank, it was most likely AI generated and not the result of Frank's minimal culinary or photographic skills. Unless you failed the "I'm not a robot" test, your recipes will probably not look like the ones in the pictures.
Ingredients
4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon lime juice

Directions
Melt the butter in a large skillet.
Sprinkle the chicken breasts with the paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place them in the foaming butter, and cook for approximately 2½ minutes on each side.
Remove from the heat, cover the pan, and set aside for 8 to 10 minutes to let the chicken finish cooking.
Arrange the chicken breasts, whole or sliced, on individual plates.
Add the lime juice to the drippings in the pan, bring the mixture to a boil, and pour over the chicken.
Serve immediately.

💬 Uncle Dave says...
A supreme of chicken is simply a boneless, skinless chicken breast. Available at any supermarket, these are virtually fat-free and cook in a few minutes.
The trick is to avoid overcooking them. The best way to do this is to sauté the breasts until they are about three-quarters done, then set them aside to finish cooking in their residual heat. The result is very tender meat.
You might serve these with sautéed potatoes, peas, or almost any vegetable dish in The Ferguson Recipes.
