- 1/2 cup chicken broth

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge them in flour, shaking off any excess.

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, and capers to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes.

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
