    Great recipe. I made a little more sauce, since I had a cup of chicken broth. used about 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and added a lot more capers, since we love them. I saved the extra flour mixture and used a little of that to thicken the sauce. The whole family loved it. Definitely one to make again!

    Spicy Cajun Chicken With Capers and Lemons, From Bon Appetit November 1997 Can you believe it’s low fat? This is begging to be served with red beans and rice! Cornbread sounds good, too! Tofu can be substituted for the chicken , Great recipe I made a little more sauce, since I had a cup of chicken broth used about 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and added a lot more capers, since we love them I saved the extra flour mixture and used a little of that to thicken the sauce The whole family loved it Definitely one to make again!, I knew DH and I would love this and it was definately a hit! We love lemons and capers and the lemon flavor was there but not real strong Made for the Aussie/NZ tag game
