SAUTEED CHICKEN WITH CAPERS

A thinly pounded breast works as well for sauteing as it does for grilling. It cooks quickly but stays moist. Dredging the chicken in flour before cooking gives it a golden exterior and leaves bits in the pan that make a great base for a simple sauce.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 pounds total)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons champagne or white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons capers, plus 1 teaspoon brine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Season chicken with salt and pepper, then coat with flour, shaking off excess. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. In batches, cook chicken until browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side (add remaining oil to pan, if necessary). Transfer to a platter and tent with foil.
  • Add vinegar to pan and cook, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, 1 minute. Add butter and capers and brine; cook, stirring, until butter is melted. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over chicken and top with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Chicken Breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly. If you can't find chicken breasts of the same size, you can pound the thicker ones thinner using a meat mallet.
  • Seasoning the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Cooking the Chicken: Cook the chicken breasts over medium-high heat until they are cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C) as measured by a meat thermometer.
  • Making the Sauce: While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce by sautéing the shallots, capers, and corn in butter. Then, add the white wine, chicken broth, and cream. Simmer the sauce until it has thickened.
  • Serving the Chicken: Serve the chicken breasts with the sauce spooned over top. You can also garnish the dish with fresh parsley or chives.
