5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons fleur de sel* or fine sea salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
4 small skinless boneless chicken breast halves (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 green onions, minced
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons Sherry wine vinegar
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon honey-Dijon mustard
