Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

• 1/4 cup drained capers

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:

1. Season the Chicken: Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in flour and shake off excess.

2. Cook the Chicken: In a large pan, melt the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

3. Create the Sauce: In the same pan, add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the wine, lemon juice, and capers. Bring to a boil.

4. Simmer: Add back the chicken to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes in the sauce.

5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with parsley. Serve hot.

Notes:

• You can use chicken thighs for a richer flavor.
