03 Method

Step 1

In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and parmesan cheese. Season the chicken with salt and pepper; dredge in the flour mixture; shake off excess and set aside.
Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil and 2 teaspoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter has melted and the pan is hot. Fry the chicken until golden on each side and cooked through and no longer pink (about 3-4 minutes). Transfer onto a warm plate.
Step 3

Add the garlic to the oil in the pan (spray with a light coating of oil if needed) and fry until fragrant (about 1 minute). Reduce heat to low-medium heat, add the broth and cream.
Step 4

Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer; season with salt and pepper to your taste; add in the parmesan cheese and capers. Continue cooking gently for about 2 minutes until thicker. If the sauce is too runny for your liking, add the cornstarch/water mixture.
Step 5

Pour in the lemon juice, allow to simmer for a further minute to combine. Add the chicken back into the pan, allow to simmer gently in the sauce for about a minute to soak up all of the flavors in the sauce.
Step 6

Serve with the sauce over pasta, steamed vegetables, zucchini noodles or rice. Top with extra capers to garnish, lemon slices and parsley.
