– 2 tablespoons butter
– 4 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 cup chicken broth
– 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

6. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
7. Stir in the capers and let the sauce cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
8. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes to soak up the flavors.
