SAUTéED CHICKEN WITH LEMON-CAPER SAUCE
Wow yourself and your family when you bring this dish to the table in under 20 minutes. It's complex flavors are Italian-inspired and fresh enough for any time of year. It's brilliant foil is the absence of salt, which it doesn't need because the briny capers and lemon juice pair with the chicken broth to make a sauce that has all the flavor it needs! Serve over a bed of wilted Swiss chard for spinach and some brown rice or pasta, anything to soak up the delicious juices. So pretty in the pan, this dish is nice enough for a dinner party and fast enough for your smallest weeknight dinner window.

Steps:
- Mix together salt and flour in a small dish or plastic bag, then coat chicken and shake off excess. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Shake excess flour from chicken, then brown in hot oil until both sides are golden-brown, and the inside has turned white and firm, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Remove the chicken, and set aside in a warm place. Pour white wine into the skillet, and allow to boil as you dissolve the cooked bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the lemon juice, and allow to come to a boil, cook for a few minutes until reduced by half.
- Sprinkle the cubed butter into the boiling sauce. Swirl and shake the pan vigorously to dissolve the butter, thus thickening the sauce. The butter must never come to rest, or the sauce will separate and become oily. Once the butter has completely incorporated, remove from heat and stir in capers.
- To serve, pour lemon-caper sauce over the chicken, and serve with a wedge of lemon.
