* See note below.
2 limes fresh
4 chicken breasts
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
1 green onion cut in 1-inch pieces
Paprika

Directions:

* Cooking Time: 8 minutes Power: 100% (700 watts) Standing Time: 2 minutes Microwave one lime at a time at 100% power(700 watts) for 30 seconds. Cut limes in half and squeeze out juice until you have 4 tablespoons (you will need about 1 1/2 limes). Reserve remaining 1/2 lime for garnish.

Remove skin from chicken. Cut chicken into bite-size strips. Place chicken in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons of the lime juice and marinate for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a 2-cup microwavable measuring cup, whisk wine, water, brown sugar, remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice, cornstarch and bouillon granules until blended. Add green onion. Microwave, uncovered, at 100% power for 3 minutes or until sauce comes to a boil, stirring after 2 minutes. Cover and set aside.

Drain chicken pieces. Discard marinade. Arrange chicken in a single layer in a 2-quart oblong microwavable dish. Sprinkle with paprika. Cover with waxed paper. Microwave at 100% power for 4 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, rearranging chicken after 2 minutes. Let stand, covered, for 2 minutes.

Drain liquid from chicken. Top chicken with sauce. Slice remaining 1/2 lime and garnish chicken.
