METHOD

Step 1

Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Dredge the chicken breasts in flour, shaking off any excess.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes per side or until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt butter and add lemon juice, capers, and chicken broth. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

Step 5

Return the chicken to the pan and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, spooning sauce over the chicken to coat.

Step 6

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy!
