Description

A Super Easy and Healthy Lemon-Caper Chicken Recipe


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 Cup of All Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 Teaspoon of Black Pepper
  • 1/4 Teaspoon of Red Pepper Flakes if you like it hot and spicy
  • 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
  • 2 Teaspoons of Olive Oil
  • 1 Cup of Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth
  • 2 Tablespoons of Lemon Juice
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoons of Capers
  • 1 Tablespoon of Chopped Parsley
  • 1/2 Lemon sliced thinly


Instructions

  1. On a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper, combine flour and black pepper and red pepper if you like it hot and spicy. Coat chicken with the flour mixture on all sides.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm oil. Add your floured chicken to the skillet; cook turning the chicken until browned golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Add your Chicken Broth to your skillet now and bring to a boil, stirring to deglaze browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until broth is reduced slightly, about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low; simmer, covered, until the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and capers. Garnish with parsley and lemon slices. Drizzle sauce over chicken when plating.
