My family just LOVES this recipe. I don't rinse the capers. Also, when I reduce the heat to medium, I cover the pan. This goes well with peas and rice pilaf.

Yummy Chicken! We all loved this dish but next time I think I'll use a little less dill and a little more lemon pepper, but only because we adore anything lemon.
