Ingredients

 4 chicken boneless, skinned breast halves (4 ounces each)
 Lime juice1 Tablespoon
 Lime rind1 Tablespoon, grated
 1 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
 Liquid red-pepper seasoning
 Whole-wheat flour
 Safflower oil2 Teaspoon
 2 tablespoons Hot Ginger Dressing
 Mushrooms1 Cup (16 tbs), sliced
 Chicken broth1/4 Cup (16 tbs)
 Green onion1 Tablespoon, chopped

Directions

1. Place the chicken breasts in a shallow baking dish. Combine the lime juice and rind, the soy sauce and a few drops of the red-pepper seasoning in a cup, mixing well. Pour the marinade over the chicken; turn the chicken to coat well. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
2. Preheat the oven to moderate (350°).
3. Drain the marinade. Pat the chicken dry with paper toweling. Lightly dust the chicken with whole-wheat flour.
4. Heat the oil in a large skillet and add the chicken. Cook until the chicken is lightly browned on both sides.
5. Brush the browned chicken lightly with the Hot Ginger Dressing. Place the chicken in a shallow baking dish. Cover.
6. Bake the chicken in the preheated moderate oven (350°) for 10 minutes or until the chicken is tender. Remove the chicken to 4 warm serving plates and keep warm.
7. Add the mushrooms to the same skillet and brown slightly. Add the chicken broth and simmer for a few minutes or until the mushrooms are heated through. Stir in the chopped green onion. Pour the mushroom sauce over the chicken, dividing equally.
