Mix 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch with the 3 tablespoons water and set aside. Place remaining 2 tablespoons cornstarch on a plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Add chicken and roll in the cornstarch making sure all sides are coated. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and brown 2 minutes per side. A meat thermometer should read 165 degrees. Transfer to a plate and add the mushrooms and garlic to the skillet. Saute 2 minutes or until mushrooms are soft. Spoon mushrooms over chicken.

Stir the cornstarch and water and add to the skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the lemon juice, capers and parsley (if using) to the sauce and spoon over the chicken. Serve the chicken over spaghetti.
