- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup butter

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the chicken
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

Step 4: Make the sauce
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the lemon juice, chicken broth, and white wine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the capers and parsley.
Step 5: Assemble the dish
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce and toss to coat. Slice the chicken breasts and arrange them on top of the spaghetti. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
