Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Cut each half of chicken breast in half, horizontally, so that you have 4 quarters of the chicken breast. Place one of the quarters into a ziplock freezer bag, and seal. Pound with a wooden mallet till 1/8 to 1/4 in thick. Remove from bag and repeat process with remaining chicken breast quarters.
  2. Sprinkle pounded breasts with salt and pepper and very lightly with garlic powder on each side.
  3. Lightly dredge in the flour, shaking off all excess, there should be a very light coating of flour.
  4. Heat olive oil and butter over medium high heat, in non stick skillet till butter just starts to foam. Add chicken breasts .

  6. Remove chicken breast to platter and pour any remaining juices with capers over the chicken.
  7. I serve this with Fettuccini Alfredo and fresh cooked spinach with lemon.
