Chicken , with Capers and Cream Sauce

I was wrestling with what to make for dinner the other night , I felt like I was in a rut. The same old thing every week, so I hit the internet and looked for a new chicken dish. I was looking for something quick, elegant, and in the comfort food range. I didn't think that was too much to ask....was it?? I came across this at allrecipes.com a recipe for Chicken Breasts in Caper Cream Sauce.

It sounded right up my alley I just need to change things up a bit as I am known to do, so here is my version of their recipe.

I do not really care for dill so I omitted that, since I had read a few of the reviews and some people subbed-out tarragon for the dill, and I would have too but I plum forgot to add it to the sauce. I have a tendency to do that....

Chicken and Capers with a Cream Sauce

• 5 Chicken Breasts, pounded thin
• 1 8oz. carton of cream
• 1 sml shallot, diced
• salt and pepper to taste
• lemon juice to taste
• 1-2 tsp capers
• butter
• olive oil

• Melt 1 tbsp butter with 1 tsp olive oil
• Saute shallots until opaque then transfer to a plate
• Saute chicken in the shallot flavored butter/oil mixture 4-5 minutes each side and they are nicely browned, add a squeeze of lemon juice to taste
  
• Add carton of cream and simmer on low for another 5 minutes until chicken is cooked thoroughly, and add capers
• I finished it off with a swirl of honey to add a touch of sweetness
  

I served it with a traditional greenbean casserole ( yum) and two kinds of sweet potato. One sweet and one savory. I used a cinnamon chipotle seasoning blend I had for one and brown sugar and maple syrup for the other. All I can say is YUMMY!!!

ENJOY !!!
