For an extra layer of flavor, try browning the chicken in a skillet on the stovetop before baking. Don't overcrowd the skillet; bake the chicken in batches if necessary. Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme make a wonderful addition to the sauce. Adjust the amount of lemon juice to your preference. Serve immediately over angel hair pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepPlace butter in a large cast-iron skillet and set in the oven to melt, watching carefully to avoid burning. (3 minutes)
03
StepIn a shallow dish, combine flour, Parmesan cheese, Italian herb blend, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt; mix well. (2 minutes)
04
StepSeason chicken breasts with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt and black pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, ensuring even coating. (5 minutes)
05
StepCarefully remove the skillet from the oven using oven mitts. Whisk chicken bone broth and lemon juice into the melted butter. Arrange the flour-coated chicken breasts in the skillet and sprinkle with capers. Spoon some of the melted butter mixture over the chicken. (5 minutes)
06
StepReturn the skillet to the oven and bake until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 to 30 minutes. If the skillet liquid evaporates too quickly, add additional bone broth and lemon juice. (30 minutes)
07
StepSet an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Carefully pour white wine into the bottom of the skillet. Broil chicken until lightly browned on top. (3 minutes)
08
StepSpoon the sauce over the chicken. Garnish with lemon slices. (2 minutes)
