3/4 cup chicken broth

2 Tbsp butter
Method:
Pound out chicken breast to make thin (or buy the thinly sliced) and brush with lemon juice. Salt and pepper and then dredge in bread crumbs.
Heat large skillet over medium-high heat cook chicken thoroughly. About 2-4 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of your chicken. Remove from pan.
In the same pan, add broth and wine stirring constantly - get the bits off the bottom the pan. Add butter and capers and then remove from heat.
Serve over angel hair pasta and spoon sauce over chicken. Also serve with a vegetable. A good pairing would be any of the following: broccoli, green beans, Brussels sprouts.

Lemony Chicken Pasta
Lemon Chicken Bowtie Pasta
Ingredients:
Chicken tenders
1 lb. Bowties
Olive Oil ~ 2.5 Tbsp
4 Cloves Garlic
Paprika ~ 2 tsp
Salt
Pepper
Juice of 1.5 lemons
Parmesan Cheese
Optional: Red pepper flakes or chili powder
Method:
Salt and pepper chicken and cook through. When done, cut chicken into bite size pieces.
Cooks pasta, drain set aside.
In pasta pot - pour oil a few turns of the pan and add garlic and paprika - when garlic starts to turn fragrant remove from heat and stir in pasta - combine well. Salt and pepper to taste. Add chili powder or some red pepper flakes for a hint of heat. Grate some parmesan cheese and stir everything together. When cheese is melted, squeeze in the juice of 1.5 lemons or more if you prefer. At this point you can add the chicken - give it a taste to adjust seasonings and serve!
Optional garnish:
Parsley - while it doesn't do much to change the flavor it packs a lot of nutrients. Very anti-inflammatory!
Additional parmesan cheese.
Pepper flakes or chili powder help to boost the metabolism, has cardiovascular benefits, helps fight free radicals, boosts immunity and much more!
I served with a side of roasted broccoli because I can't have a meal without a vegetable.
