Instructions
- Place the egg and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small bowl. Whisk until the egg is well beaten.
- Place the flour, garlic powder, and paprika in another small bowl, and stir to combine.
- Put the chicken breasts between two sheets of waxed paper. Pound until they are flattened and even in thickness.
- Dry off the chicken by patting it with paper towels - the drier the chicken, the more the batter will adhere to the chicken.
- Dip the chicken in the egg mixture.
- Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

- Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is done.
- Transfer the chicken to serving plates.
- Spoon the sauce over the chicken and garnish with capers and lemon slices.
