Cuisine: Italian

Cooking time: 30 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup almond flour
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained

Instructions

1. Begin by flattening the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet, then season both sides with salt and pepper.
2. Dredge each chicken breast in almond flour, shaking off any excess flour.
3. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside to keep warm. In the same skillet, add the lemon juice and capers, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
5. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until melted and the sauce is slightly thickened. Return the chicken to the skillet, allowing it to soak up the sauce for a minute before serving.
