Cooking time: 20 minutes

INSTRUCTIONS
- To make this delicious meal in under half an hour, simply dredge the turkey breasts in flour, shaking the excess flour off.

- Cook for roughly five minutes on each side (depending how thick the breast are) until they are white in the middle and lightly brown in the outside.
- Remove from the pan and add in the capers and the stock. Cook the sauce for about 5-7 minutes until it is reduced and slightly thickened, than add in the the meat, the lemon juice, the parsley and the lemon slices.
- Cook them for just a minute until they just get warm then serve over rice, mash potatoes, or I like them best with some roasted vegetables.
