Directions

  1. Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap. Pound breasts to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet.

  2. Spread flour into a wide, shallow dish. Press chicken into flour to coat completely.

  3. Melt butter with olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook chicken in hot butter mixture until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet to a serving platter and cover with a lid to keep warm.

  4. Pour white wine, lemon juice, capers, and garlic into the pan. Bring the liquid to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, cook at a boil until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.

  5. Drizzle sauce over and around the chicken, garnish with parsley.
