Chicken in Lemon Caper Butter image

The first dish I ever served to guests and the response I got was so positive I've been making it ever since. Needless to say, it's a very simple recipe. One of the few chicken dishes I still make using bone-in, skin-on chicken parts. When feeding known garlic-lovers, I'll increase the garlic. I generally serve it with noodles. While I post the original amounts from the recipe below, I actually do not measure the butter & lemon juice when I make this, but rather use 1 lemon's worth lemon juice and approximately the same or just slightly more butter, so that the butter comes to about 2-3 Tbs I would guess.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked more lemon and capers in the sauce.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I added some chopped vegetables to the sauce and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't turn out as tender as I would have liked.

I'm not a big fan of capers, but I still enjoyed this dish. The lemon and butter sauce was delicious.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me, but the end result was worth it. The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was amazing.

I would have liked the chicken to be a bit more crispy, but overall this was a good recipe.

The sauce was a bit too lemony for my taste, but otherwise this recipe was great.

This chicken dish was a hit with my family! The lemon, capers, and butter combined to create a flavorful and tangy sauce that perfectly complemented the tender chicken.
