What You'll Need
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 4 tablespoons butter, divided
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained
What to Do
- In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Coat chicken with flour mixture; set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter with the oil. Cook chicken 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until golden. Remove to a platter, then add remaining butter to skillet.
- Add artichoke hearts, wine, lemon juice, and capers. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until bubbly, stirring occasionally.

Made this tonight and served it with white jasmine rice. Yum! It has a wonderful tangy lemon flavor. It reminded me of Greek avgolemono soup. Some changes I flattened the chicken breasts for quicker cooking and added a tablespoon of cornstarch to make the sauce thicker. I will leave out the artichokes next time because they have a rough texture.

I pull off the outer artichoke leaves which helps with the texture being smoother.

This dish is so easy and delicious. It has a delicious sauce, and I served it with herbed quinoa. Definitely a keeper.
