Ingredients:

  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup Butter or margarine
  • 3 tablespoons capers rinsed
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves butterflied
  • Coarse salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions:

  1. Place chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an equal thickness using a mallet. Combine flour with a generous amount of salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Set aside after dredging the chicken in the flour mixture and tapping off the excess.
  2. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter and the oil over medium-high heat until the butter foams. Cook for 2 minutes after adding the chicken. Cook for another 2 minutes on the other side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside to keep warm. Any extra fat should be poured away.
  3. Add the remainder of the ingredients. Cook, swirling the pan to melt the butter, until reduced and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour over chicken, and serve immediately.
  4. Makes 4 servings.
