   ["Butterfly the chicken breasts, and then cut them into 2"" x 4"" (approximately) strips. Pound flat.", "Season chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.", "In a large skillet over medium high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with 3 tablespoons olive oil. When butter and oil start to sizzle, add enough pieces of chicken that will fit in a single layer in the pan and cook for 3 minutes. When chicken is browned, flip and cook other side for 3 minutes (or until it is completely cooked through). Remove and transfer to plate. Melt 2 more tablespoons butter and add another 2 tablespoons olive oil. When butter and oil start to sizzle, add the other pieces of chicken and brown both sides in same manner. Continue cooking until all the chicken is cooked (you may need more butter and oil if the breasts are large). Remove pan from heat and add chicken to the plate.", "Into the pan add the lemon juice, 3/4c stock and capers. Return to stove and bring to boil, scraping up brown bits from the pan for extra flavor. Check for seasoning (add more broth if you like less lemon flavor, we happen to like it VERY lemony). Return all the chicken to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove chicken to platter. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to sauce and whisk vigorously (you can sprinkle flour at this point to thicken it a bit if needed, I like mine to be just thick enough to coat a spoon). Pour sauce over chicken and garnish with parsley."]
