- As the chicken begins to fry you'll need to back down the temperature so it won't stick to the pan or burn..
- After the chicken has begun frying and you have it at a good stable temperature, slice both your lemon and lime in half and squeeze only one half of both the lime and lemon as to not make the chicken sour..
- Keep in mind not to get too much lemon and lime juice in the pan because you're wanting to fry it, not boil it..
- Make sure to flip each chicken breast every couple of minutes so you can brown both sides evenly.
- Once the chicken is thoroughly browned on all sides it is completely cooked and ready to plate..
