Ingredients

• 3 lbs bone-in skin-on chicken breasts
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 teaspoon flour
• 3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon capers
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• salt and pepper

Instructions

1. Adjust an oven rack to the lowest position and heat the oven to 450°F Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and sean with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a 12" oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Carefully lay the chicken breasts skin-side down in the skillet and cook until well browned, 6-8 minutes. Turn the chicken breasts and continue to brown lightly on the second side, about 3 minutes.

2. Turn the chicken beasts skin-side down and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the thickest part of the brests registers 160F on an instant read thermometer - about 15-20 minutes.

3. Remove the skillet from the oven (warning: The handles are HOT!). Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate, tent loosely with foil, and let rest while making the sauce.

4. Sauce: Being careful of the hot pan handle, add the oil to the skillet and return to medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the broth, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a simmer and cook 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

5. Stir in any accumulated juices from the chicken and return to a simmer. Remove from heat and add remaining ingredients. Add salt and pepper to taste.

6. Carve chicken and serve with sauce.
