Ingredients

  • 4-5 boneless, skinless chicken cutlets, pounded thin (about 1.25 lbs)
  • salt & pepper
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1-2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp. capers, drained and rinsed
  • 1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 1 Tbsp. plain Greek yogurt, or more to taste
  • angel hair pasta, for serving if desired
  • sliced lemons, for serving
  • parsley, for serving

Directions

  • Pound chicken cutlets and season with salt and pepper. Roll in flour and shake off excess.
  • Heat oil in pan. Brown chicken on both sides over medium heat. Remove to a plate when brown, set aside.
  • Pull pan off the heat and add in minced garlic. Stir. Dont burn the garlic!
  • When fragrant, add chicken broth and place pan back on heat. Scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Heat to a light boil and let sauce cook until reduced a bit.
  • Add lemon juice and capers. Simmer again until sauce is reduced some and slightly thickened.
  • Add butter and melt. Add chicken and any liquid on plate. Simmer together over a medium-low heat until sauce is to thickness desired. Pull off heat. Lightly stir in yogurt (can also skip this step and eat without adding yogurt).
  • Serve chicken alone or with angel hair pasta (I used the whole wheat kind) with some lemon slices on the side and parsley sprinkled over the top. Enjoy!
