Preparation

Step 1

1. Pour white wine into the skillet, and allow to boil. Add the lemon juice, and allow to come to a boil, cook for a few minutes until reduced by half.
2. Sprinkle the cubed butter into the boiling sauce. Swirl and shake the pan vigorously to dissolve the butter, thus thickening the sauce. The butter must never come to rest, or the sauce will separate and become oily. Once the butter has completely incorporated, remove from heat and stir in capers.
3. To serve, pour lemon-caper sauce over fish (or chicken), and serve with a wedge of lemon.
