Ingredients
Method
Prepare the chicken
- Slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise to make thinner cutlets. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Dredge in flour
- Lightly coat each piece in flour, shaking off any excess. This helps create a light crust and thickens the sauce later.
Cook the chicken
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chicken and cook for about 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Make the sauce
- In the same pan, add remaining olive oil and a bit more butter. Pour in the white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
Add flavor
- Stir in the capers, chicken stock, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Let it simmer for 4–5 minutes until slightly reduced.
Finish the dish
- Return the chicken to the pan and spoon the sauce over it. Add the remaining butter and let it melt into the sauce.
Garnish and serve
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.
