Pour olive oil into a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium high. Add chicken and cook 3-5 minutes per side, until chicken is done and golden. Remove from pan.
Add chicken broth, wine, and lemon juice, and cook, scraping up any stuck bits, for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter and capers.
Serve chicken with the sauce drizzled over and sprinkled with parsley.
