Servings 2
Ingredients
- 2 skinless boneless chicken breasts
- Salt and black pepper
- 2 cups All-purpose flour for dredging
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons Seven Barrels Miller’s Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon Seven Barrels Meyer Lemon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 lemons juice zested and juiced
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1/2 cup brined capers
- 1/3 cup fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
-
Place one chicken breast on a cutting board, flat side down. Put the palm of your non-cutting hand on top of the breast, and slowly cut horizontally though the breast. Repeat with other chicken breast to make 4 cutlets. Place chicken breast under cling wrap, and use a meat mallet to pound the chicken breast out evenly to about ¼ inch thick.
-
Season chicken generously with salt and pepper. Place flour on a large plate. Dip each chicken cutlet into flour and coat evenly.
-
In a large skillet on medium high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with 3 tablespoons Seven Barrels Miller’s Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil. When oil starts to sizzle, add 2 pieces of chicken and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove and transfer to plate.
-
Melt 2 more tablespoons of butter and 2 more tablespoons Seven Barrels Miller’s Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil. When oil starts to sizzle, add remaining 2 pieces of chicken and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Set aside.
-
Add lemon juice, zest, stock, and capers to pan. Bring to a boil and be sure to scrape up bits from the bottom of the pan. Add salt and pepper to taste.
-
Return all of the chicken to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove chicken to a serving platter. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of Seven Barrels Meyer Lemon Extra Virgin Olive Oil to pan and whisk. Pour sauce over chicken and garnish with fresh parsley.
