Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Dill-Caper Chicken Breasts.
Step 1
Begin by generously spreading flour across a large plate.
Step 2
Take your pounded chicken breasts and dredge them in the flour, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated.
Step 3
Season both sides with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, then set them aside to rest.
Step 4
In a spacious skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat, allowing the rich aroma to fill your kitchen as you add minced garlic.
Step 5
Sauté for about two minutes, just until the garlic becomes fragrant.
Step 6
Raise the heat to medium-high and gently place the floured chicken breasts into the skillet.
Step 7
Cook for around ten minutes, turning them once, until they are golden brown and cooked through, with an internal temperature reaching at least 165°F (74°C).
Step 8
Once done, transfer the chicken to a plate, cover it with aluminum foil, and keep it warm.
Step 9
In the same skillet, pour in white wine, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any delicious browned bits from the bottom.
Step 10
Stir in heavy cream, fresh lemon juice, and a medley of herbs—basil, parsley, dill, and thyme.
Step 11
Bring this delightful mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low.
Step 12
Whisk continuously as the sauce thickens and transforms into a creamy delight, which should take about three to five minutes.
Step 13
Add the drained capers to the sauce, heating for an additional one to two minutes to infuse their briny flavor.
Step 14
To serve, place the chicken breasts on plates and lavishly drizzle the luscious dill-caper cream sauce over the top, creating a dish that’s not just a meal but a culinary experience.
Step 15
Enjoy every bite!.
