步骤
Begin by chopping your shallot, garlic and squeezing the juice from your lemon, as this recipe comes together quickly - you want everything to be ready.
Prepare your chicken.Take 2 large chicken breasts and either slice them in half to form 4 cutlets or butterfly them to have 2 large pieces. On a cutting board, place parchment paper under the sliced cutlets and more parchment on top. Using a meat mallet, pound them to about 1/4 inch thick. Then, season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
On a plate, add the flour. Dredge each chicken cutlet in the flour, pressing gently on both sides, and shake off excess.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add half the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken and sear 2–3 minutes per side, until nearly cooked. Remove the chicken and set aside.
Reduce the heat to low-medium. Add the remaining olive oil, shallot, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook 2–3 minutes until softened. Add the capers, white wine, and lemon juice. Simmer and scrape any browned bits.
Whisk in the butter until the sauce thickens slightly, 1–2 minutes.
Return the chicken to the pan and bring it to a gentle simmer. Tilt the pan so the sauce pools to one side, then use a spoon to scoop up the sauce and baste it over the chicken until it’s fully cooked and warmed through.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
