๐Ÿ›’ Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup capers, rinsed and drained
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ Instructions

  1. 1
    Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess.
  2. 2
    Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil and 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. 3
    Make the Sauce: Add lemon juice, chicken broth, and capers to the same skillet. Bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits. Cook for 5 minutes to reduce slightly.
  4. 4
    Finish the Sauce: Remove from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tbsp butter until melted and glossy.
  5. 5
    Serve: Return chicken to skillet to warm through. Plate chicken, spoon sauce over top, and garnish with fresh parsley.

๐ŸŽฏ Pro Tips for Success

๐ŸŒก๏ธ
Use a meat thermometer – chicken should reach 165ยฐF internal temperature
๐Ÿ‹
Adjust lemon juice to taste – add more for tangier sauce, less for milder flavor
๐Ÿ”ฅ
Don’t overcrowd the pan – cook chicken in batches if needed for even browning
๐Ÿฅ„
Scrape up all the brown bits – they add incredible flavor to the sauce
