While the chicken cooks, slice onions and chop garlic.
Drizzle olive oil in a large skillet and set to medium-high heat. Once pan is hot, seer the meat for about 4 minutes, or until nicely browned (cover to retain moisture). Flip meat and cover again for another 6-7 minutes. Decrease heat to medium, turning meat again if needed for a darker brown to cook for another 2 minutes.
Transfer cooked chicken to a bowl and cover. Drizzle more olive oil into your hot skillet (about 1 tablespoon). Sauté the onion and garlic for about 3 minutes. Add the broth, capers, lemon juice, and simmer for another 3-4 minutes. Add the chicken back into the skillet, covering it with the juice and vegetables. Decrease heat to low, cover, and simmer for another 4-5 minutes.
