Recipe View Divide the fettuccine among serving plates. Top with the chicken and spoon the lemon-caper sauce over the chicken. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley. Serve immediately. (Estimated time: 2 minutes)

For a richer sauce, add a tablespoon of butter at the end.
If you don't have white wine, you can substitute chicken broth.
Pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness ensures they cook evenly.
Grated Parmesan cheese is also a good garnish.
