A delightful blend of flavors with tender chicken, zesty lemon, and briny capers, combined with comforting pasta.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz pasta (spaghetti or fettuccine)
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup capers
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Fill a large pot with water and sprinkle in a generous amount of salt. Bring it to a rolling boil and add your pasta. Cook until al dente, approximately 8-10 minutes, then drain the pasta and toss it lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dust each breast with flour, shaking off the excess.
  3. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the floured chicken breasts and allow them to cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes on each side, until they turn a beautiful golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let them rest.
  4. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping up any brown bits.
  5. Stir in the capers and let the sauce simmer for a few moments.
  6. Toss the drained pasta in the skillet with the sauce.
  7. Arrange the chicken on top of the pasta. Finish with parsley.

Notes

Use fresh lemon juice for best flavor. Try marinating chicken in lemon juice and garlic for added flavor.
