Chicken with Lemon and Capers

This is another recipe I found in AllYou magazine. Another quick, easy one with SOME normal ingredients I usually have around.

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 5 oz. each)
Salt and pepper
1/3 c flour
3 T unsalted butter
3 T vegetable oil
1/4 c lemon juice
1/2 c white wine
1/4 c capers, rinsed

1. Preheat oven to 200F. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. Warm 1 T butter and 2 T oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 chicken breast halves; cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 3 minutes longer. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil. Add 1 T oil to skillet; repeat with remaining chicken.
2. Add lemon juice and wine to skillet and bring to a boil, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan. Boil, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5minutes. Remove from heat; stir in capers and remaining 1 T butter. Cook, stirring, until butter melts. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over chicken and serve.
