Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

6 ounces fettuccine

¼ cup all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning

1 pound chicken breasts, cut into four 1/2-inch thick pieces

2 tablespoons olive oil

⅓ cup white wine

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons water

½ teaspoon chicken bouillon granules

1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained (Optional)

½ lemon, cut into wedges, or as desired (Optional)

4 sprigs fresh parsley, or as desired (Optional)

Directions

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in the fettuccine, bring back to a boil, and cook pasta over medium heat until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.

Whisk flour and lemon-pepper seasoning together in a shallow bowl; dredge chicken through mixture until evenly coated, shaking excess back into bowl.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook chicken until light golden brown and no longer pink in the center, 6 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a plate, retaining oil mixture in the skillet.

Mix white wine, lemon juice, water, and chicken bouillon granules into oil mixture in the skillet. Bring liquid to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon until sauce is slightly reduced, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir capers into sauce.

Divide pasta among serving plates; top with chicken. Spoon sauce over chicken and garnish with lemon wedges and parsley.

Cook's Notes:

Turkey breast tenderloins can be used in place of chicken. Linguine can be used in place of fettuccine. Cooking oil can be used in place of olive oil.
