Lemon Caper Chicken

I love anything salty {much to the dismay of my cholesterol} and one of my favorite chicken dishes is lemon caper chicken.

I recently tried a new restaurant {Raffa's - for all my Lake Houston neighbors} and fell IN.LOVE with their Mediterranean chicken.

It had a lemon cream sauce and was topped with capers, mushrooms, olives, sun dried tomatoes and feta. It was to die for!

I decided that it was something I should try at home and so I began searching for a {somewhat trimmer} version of this dish.

Thanks to Jaime and Jen, at Jaime and Jen Dish I found a great, low-cal, recipe for a lemon cream sauce that was so yummy on grilled chicken.

 

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 clove garlic, minced

1/4 cup lemon juice

2 tablespoons capers

1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning

1/2 cup low fat sour cream

 

Heat the oil on medium heat and cook garlic on medium heat until soft (about 1-2 minutes)

 

Add your lemon juice, capers and lemon pepper and let simmer on low for about 5 minutes

 

Add sour cream and let simmer for additional 5 minutes. {Depending on how lemony you like things, you may want to add a tad more sour cream}

Enjoy and Happy Friday!
