Lemon Caper Chicken

A twist off of the Italian version with white wine. I learned from my best friend in elementary school and was obsessed to make my own version. I am a lemon nut so the lemon juice amount all depends on person, but I like it TART! Very yummy with or without sauce as my kids say, I have never tried. Show more
