    | 1. Pound chicken breast halves to 1/2 thick cutlets. | 2. Lightly salt and pepper both sides of chicken cutlets. | 3. Heat oil and butter over medium heat in a large heavy saucepan with a lid. | 4. Dredge chicken in flour, shake off excess, and saute in pan about 3 minutes per side, until golden, turning only once. | 5. Remove chicken from pan and set aside on a plate. | 6. Using the same pan, with drippings, saute shallots 2 minutes. | 7. Add wine, cook 1-2 minutes until alcohol evaporates. | 8. Add chicken broth and bring to a simmer. | 9. Add capers. | 10.
