Cajun Lemon Chicken

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons Cajun spice blend, divided
2 teaspoons paprika
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
nonstick cooking spray
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 medium lemon, cut into wedges

Place flour, 2 teaspoons spice blend and paprika in a shallow plate and stir to blend. Set aside 1 tablespoon flour mixture.

Lightly coat both sides of chicken with cooking spray, then dredge in flour mixture.

Coat a 12-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray, add oil and heat over medium-low heat. Add chicken and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink inside when cut with a knife. Transfer to a plate, cover to keep warm.

Add broth, lemon juice and remaining 2 teaspoons Cajun spice blend to the skillet, along with reserved 1 tablespoon flour mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat, for 3 to 5 minutes or
until sauce thickens slightly.

Arrange chicken on serving platter and spoon sauce on top. Garnish with lemon wedges. Serve immediately.
Serves 4.
