Chicken Scallopine

I tried this dish awhile back and really enjoyed it but for some reason could never remember the name of it. I like to describe this dish as if Chicken Marsala and Chicken Piccata had a baby and named it Chicken Scallopine. Poor guy is gonna get teased in school with a name like that :) Anyways, it is very easy and quick to fix.

Start by pounding a couple of chicken breast until they are the same thickness. Salt, pepper, and lightly coat them with flour.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat.
Cook chicken until golden brown on both sides. Remove and set aside.
Add about 1 cup of white mushrooms thinly sliced to the pan along with 1/2 cup of white wine.
Add the juice of 1 lemon and cook until liquid reduces.
Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream and 1 large spoonful of capers. Salt and pepper to taste.
Pour over chicken and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
