CREAMY LEMON DIJON CHICKEN image

The picture of this chicken just leapt off the page at me, it looks so delicious. I have never used capers before but I'm told they taste similar to green olives. If your chicken breasts aren't too thick you may want to cut down the cooking time. I prefer mine to cook a little longer. Recipe & photo:...

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less butter and cream next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! The sauce was a bit too lemony for my taste, but that's just a personal preference.
