Piccata Sauce

• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup dry white wine (sauvignon blanc is a good choice)
• 1/4 cup onion, minced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 tablespoons capers, drained
• Salt & pepper
• Fresh parsley, chopped

In a large uncoated skillet with high edges melt the butter in the olive oil over medium heat. When the butter is completely melted, sprinkle the flour evenly into the pan and stir to soak up the liquid. Continue to cook the flour for about 2 minutes, being careful not to let it burn.
