Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

02

Step
6 mins

Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Stir in flour and garlic; stir constantly until garlic is fragrant and flour is well combined, about 1 minute. Stir in chicken broth and half-and-half. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until sauce is bubbly and thick, about 5 minutes.

03

Step
1 mins

Off heat, stir in ½ cup Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, capers, salt, and black pepper; set aside.

04

Step
1 mins

Slice each chicken breast lengthwise into 2 cutlets; place in a single layer in the prepared dish. Season with salt and black pepper. Spread sauce evenly over cutlets; top with lemon slices.

05

Step
1 mins

Combine remaining ¼ cup Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over casserole.

06

Step
25 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into cutlets reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 20 to 25 minutes. Garnish with parsley; serve warm.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the chicken breasts in lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before assembling the casserole.
Feel free to add a splash of white wine to the sauce for a richer, more complex flavor profile. Add it after the garlic and flour, and allow it to reduce slightly before adding the chicken broth and half-and-half.
If you prefer a crispier topping, broil the casserole for the last 1-2 minutes of baking, keeping a close watch to prevent burning.

    My chicken was a little dry, so next time I'll try baking it for a shorter amount of time.

    This recipe is so versatile. I've made it with shrimp instead of chicken, and it was just as good!

    I didn't have bread crumbs, so I used crushed crackers. It still turned out great!
