Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, pound the chicken breasts with a meat tenderizer to flatten.

  2. Mix flour with salt and pepper. Lightly coat each chicken breast in flour mix and set aside. 

  3. Once skillet is heated, add olive oil. Then add chicken breasts two at a time to the skillet. Cook for approximately 3 minutes on each side, until browned and internal temperature has reached 160 degrees. 

  4. Place cooked chicken breasts in oven to keep warm while cooking the remaining chicken breasts. 

  5. Once all of the chicken is cooked, add remaining olive oil to skillet and brown onions. Once browned, add lemon juice and chicken broth and continue to simmer until sauce has thickened. Then add capers and return chicken to skillet and serve.
