- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- Pinch salt
- 2 skinless boneless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup wine dry white
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter cold and cut into pieces
- 2 tablespoons capers drained
- 2 lemon wedges
In a shallow dish, mix together the flour and salt.
Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture until coated.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil.
Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Pour the white wine into the skillet and scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the lemon juice and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the butter, one piece at a time, until the sauce is smooth.
Stir in the capers.
Return the chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
