Sauteed Chicken w/ Olives, Capers & ROASTED LEMONS - SDRecipeGirl - 05-16-2008

Roasted Lemons! Have you ever had them? This was my first experience in roasting them and I just absolutely loved them. This was a terrific dish. If you're into seeing pictures of what the dish looks like and more discussion about it, I devoted a blog post to it here .

Sauteed Chicken with Olives, Capers and Roasted Lemons

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 medium lemons, sliced ¼-inch thick
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four 6-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup pitted green Sicilian or Spanish olives, sliced
2 Tbs drained capers
1 cup chicken stock or low-sodium broth
3 Tbs unsalted butter, cut into small dice
2 Tbs chopped flat-leaf parsley

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil on the parchment, then arrange the lemon slices in a single layer. Drizzle the lemons lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 20 minute, until the lemons begin to brown around the edges.

2. In a deep medium skillet, heat the remaining ¼ cup of oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and dust with the flour, shaking off the excess. Cook the chicken over high heat, turning once, until golden, about 6 minutes. Add olives, capers and stock and bring to a boil. Cook over high heat until stock is reduced by about two-thirds, about 5 minutes. Add the roasted lemons, butter and parsley. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer just until the chicken is cooked through, about 1 minute.

3. Transfer the chicken to plates and spoon the sauce on top.

Wow! This looks REALLY good! I've done something similar with salmon, but not with roasted lemons...raw. This will change. Copied and saved here too! Thanks for sharing!
