It is tasty. Chicken is tender, juice, flavor-able. I ate the chicken with water-boiled broccoli and it is a great combination.
I wish I could give this recipe 10 stars! Not only was this recipe super super easy and quick, it was keto friendly 6 only carbs per serving. I ran out of almond flour or I probably would have probably substituted that for the regular flour. This turned out so so so good. My entire family loves it! Paired this with a fresh arugula lemon salad and creamy cauliflower mash.
My family loves capers, so we've put this recipe in our rotation. We always double the sauce, but remember to add the lemon juice one tablespoon at a time so that you don't get it too lemony. I agree with other reviewers that garlic would be a great addition to this recipe.
This is super easy and super good. My hubby usually complains about chicken breast but this one he remarked at how good it was. The capers are a really tasty addition.
Very Easy to make, great flavor, great addition to the dinner menu mixup!
We simply didn't care for this recipe. We have so many chicken recipes that we enjoy more.
This recipe is great .I just love it on egg noodles with the lemoney butter sauce.I think Martha over cooked the chicken.
ADDITION: I use a splash of white wine to deglaze the pan.
I am sorry, Hannah, but I did not really care for this. Although I folllowed your instructions, my chicken did not turn out tender. Also, the sauce was a bit tart for our taste. I will either try it again with less lemon juice, or I will stick to my a-little-bit-longer-yet better-recipe.
I followed the recipe as written. The chicken was moist and flavorful, but I couldn't get the sauce to thicken. I'm sure that I must have missed a step somewhere. At any rate we enjoyed the chicken. Our side dishes were mashed potatoes and broccoli. They worked well with the recipe.
