How to Make Chicken in Lemon Butter Caper Sauce
- Butterfly the chicken breast halves by cutting them horizontally. Pound to a uniform 1/4-inch thickness, then dredge in a mixture of flour, salt, pepper, and Parmesan until fully coated.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken cutlets and cook until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and keep warm under aluminum foil.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the Pinot Grigio and lemon juice, boiling the mixture over high heat. Cook until the liquid reduces to about 2 tablespoons, roughly 5 minutes.
- Lower the heat to the lowest setting. Gradually whisk in the remaining butter, one piece at a time, ensuring each piece melts before adding the next. Season with salt and pepper, then fold in the rinsed capers.
- Plate the cooked angel hair pasta as a base, lay the browned chicken on top, and spoon the lemon butter caper sauce over both.
