Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. Squeeze juice from one lemon over the chicken and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Mushrooms

    Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them thickly. Mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are browned and tender.

  3. 5

    Add Capers and Lemon

    Add the capers and the juice from the second lemon to the mushrooms. Stir well, allowing the flavors to blend for about 2 minutes.

  4. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Return the chicken to the skillet and coat it with the mushroom and caper mixture. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through. Serve hot, garnished with lemon slices if desired.
