Method:

First pound the chicken breasts to make them even and flat. This can be done by placing them in a plastic zip-top back, cutting the sides (you#39;ll have to sacrifice a bag) and using a rolling pin to flatten. Then, put salt and pepper into the flour to season the chicken as it gets a coat of flour. Beat eggs in another bowl, add some water to thin out (2 tbsp). In a third bowl place the seasoned bread crumbs. Dredge the chicken into the flour, tap off the excess. Dip into beaten egg mixture, then into the bread crumbs. Continue with the three other chicken breasts. Heat up 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a saute pan then add chicken, brown on both sides 2 minutes. Fry in batches till well browned, place finished chicken on a plate while waiting for the rest. When finished, wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Add rest of the butter and olive oil and heat, add capers, lemon juice, chicken stock and half of the parsley. Simmer until reduced by half. Pour sauce over warm chicken breasts. Enjoy with a side of angel hair pasta tossed with olive oil, lemon juice salt, pepper amp; parsley or sauteed spinach. Delicious!
