CREAMY LEMON DIJON CHICKEN image

The picture of this chicken just leapt off the page at me, it looks so delicious. I have never used capers before but I'm told they taste similar to green olives. If your chicken breasts aren't too thick you may want to cut down the cooking time. I prefer mine to cook a little longer. Recipe & photo:...

I would definitely make this recipe again, but I would make a few changes. I would use boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead of thighs, and I would add some vegetables to the sauce.
