Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Rinse chicken, pat dry, pound thinly between sheets of waxed paper.
  2. Flour the chicken.
  3. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. In large skillet, saute chicken in oil until lightly browned on both sides about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Remove chicken from pan and keep warm in oven on low.
  6. Add garlic and saute quickly.
  7. Quickly, add both the wine and broth getting browned bits from bottom of pan to dissolve and bring to a boil. Reduce this to about 1 cup of sauce. While reducing, sample the dry white wine from your own wine glass now and hope you picked a good one.
  8. Stir in the capers and chopped lemon letting this return to a boil. The idea here is for the lemon to soften considerably to become an edible part of the dish. Sample to check. About 10 minutes does the trick. You want edible, not firm.
  9. Add the butter and parsley and continue to cook until the sauce thickens and gets creamy.
  10. Add the chicken back to the pan and let cook for another couple of minutes allowing the chicken to absorb the sauce.
  11. Put on plate and serve remaining sauce over the top.
