Slice the chicken breast horizontally and pound it to an even thinness.
Mix the flour with half the salt and the black pepper, then coat the chicken lightly.
Cook the chicken in olive oil for 3 minutes per side, then transfer to a plate.
In the same pan, add the stock, lemon juice, and capers, and boil for 4 minutes.
Whisk in the butter piece by piece and check the salt.
Return the chicken to the pan and warm it in the sauce for 2 minutes.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
💡 Tip: Caper saltiness varies, so taste the sauce before adding the final salt.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with lemon sauce, buttered noodles, or an arugula salad.
