Ingredients
    4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    1/2 cup salted butter
    4 tablespoons lime juice (the store-bought kind)
    3 -4 limes
    3 tablespoons dill weed
    1 teaspoon minced garlic (to taste)
    salt and pepper (to taste)
Preparation
    Salt and pepper chicken breasts, and sprinkle both sides with a little dill weed.
    Heat large skillet on medium heat.
    Melt 1/2 stick of butter in skillet, garlic, salt & pepper, 1T of dill weed, 2T lime juice and the juice of 1.5-2 limes.
    Add chicken breasts, over medium heat cook approximately 6-8 minutes per side or until done.
    In seperate smaller skillet combine the other 1/2 stick of butter, 1.5T dillweed, 2T lime juice and juice of 1.5 lime (save at least 1/2 of a lime for garnish). Heat over low heat until combined and melted.
    Pour sauce from second skillet over plated chicken breasts.
    Garnish with lime slices. Slice off a thin circle of lime. Cut 1/2 down center and then pull ends in opposite directions to create a spiral like shape.
    I serve this dish with rice or parmesan angel hair pasta and a vegetable.
