Method

1

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dredge them in flour until lightly coated, shaking off any excess.

2

Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

3

Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

4

In the same skillet, add the lemon juice, chicken stock, and capers. Bring to a simmer and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

5

Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.

6

Return the chicken to the pan to coat with the sauce, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
