02 Ingredients
  • Sauce
    • 2 tbsp. fresh parsley
    • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
    • 1 tsp. cornstarch
    • 2 tbsp. capers
    • 1/3 cup finely grated fresh parmesan cheese
    • 1/2 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
    • 1 1/4 cups chicken broth
    • 2 tbsp. minced garlic
    • 2 tsp. butter
    • 1 tbsp. olive oil
    • cracked pepper
    • 1 tsp. salt
    • 2 tbsp. finely grated fresh parmesan cheese
    • 2 tbsp. flour
    • 2 large boneless and skinless chicken breasts
03 Method
  • Step 1
    In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and parmesan cheese. Season the chicken with salt and pepper; dredge in the flour mixture; shake off excess and set aside.
  • Step 2
    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil and 2 teaspoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter has melted and the pan is hot. Fry the chicken until golden on each side and cooked through and no longer pink (about 3-4 minutes). Transfer onto a warm plate.
  • Step 3
    Add the garlic to the oil in the pan (spray with a light coating of oil if needed) and fry until fragrant (about 1 minute). Reduce heat to low-medium heat, add the broth and cream.
  • Step 4
    Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer; season with salt and pepper to your taste; add in the parmesan cheese and capers. Continue cooking gently for about 2 minutes until thicker. If the sauce is too runny for your liking, add the cornstarch/water mixture.
  • Step 5
    Pour in the lemon juice, allow to simmer for a further minute to combine. Add the chicken back into the pan, allow to simmer gently in the sauce for about a minute to soak up all of the flavors in the sauce.
  • Step 6
    Serve with the sauce over pasta, steamed vegetables, zucchini noodles or rice. Top with extra capers to garnish, lemon slices and parsley.
