In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, salt, minced garlic, and lemon zest. Stir until well blended.
Using about 2 tablespoons of the mixture, roll into golf ball-sized meatballs.
Warm a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add olive oil until shimmering.
Add the meatballs to the pan and turn every few minutes for even cooking, until golden brown, about 6 minutes.
Remove meatballs and set aside.
In the same pan, add butter and minced garlic. Melt and whisk in flour for 1 minute.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, stir in the capers, caper brine, and lemon juice. Simmer for 6-7 minutes until thick.
Return meatballs to the pan and cook with the sauce for another 5-6 minutes.
Serve over pasta, rice, or enjoy plain.
