Lemon Scalloppini Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon capers, drained and rinsed
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Place each chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound to a thickness of 1/4 inch with a meat mallet.
2. Mix together flour, salt, and black pepper, and dredge chicken breasts in the mixture, shaking off any excess.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
4. Cook the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
5. Add chicken broth, lemon juice, and capers to the same pan, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a boil and continue cooking until reduced by half.
6. Add the remaining butter and olive oil to the pan, whisking until the butter has melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
7. Return the chicken breasts to the pan, spoon the lemon-caper sauce over them, and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
8. Serve hot.
