Ingredients
- 2 skinless and boneless chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise
- kosher salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour for dredging
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves finely minced
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup brined capers drained
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Cut chicken breast in half lengthwise (butterflied). Season with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour and shake off excess.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoons of butter with 1 tablespoons olive oil. When butter and oil start to sizzle, add 2 pieces of chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes, without moving the chicken. When chicken is browned, flip and cook other side for 3 -4 minutes or until cooked through.
- Remove chicken and transfer to plate. Melt 1 more tablespoons butter and add another 1 tablespoons olive oil. When butter and oil start to sizzle, add the other 2 pieces of chicken and repeat. When cooked though, transfer chicken to the plate and remove pan from heat.
- Drain used oil from pan. Add the lemon juice, chicken broth, garlic, and capers to the pan. Return pan to heat and bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits from the pan. Check for seasoning and adjust as needed. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to sauce and stir until emulsified. Add chicken back to pan, garnish with parsley and serve.
