Tips

I add a tablespoon of flour to pan and stir thoroughly before adding the lemon juice, broth and capers to make a thicker sauce.

Butterfly the chicken breasts and cut in half. Pound thin. Dredge in flour and shake off excess. Heat 2 tbsp. butter and 3 tbsp. oil until hot. Add 2 chicken breast halves and saute for 3 minutes each side. Remove to plate and keep warm. Add 2 tbsp. butter and 2 tbsp. oil to pan and saute remaining 2 chicken breast halves for 3 minutes each side. Remove to plate and keep warm. Add lemon juice, broth and capers to pan.
