Whisk 2 tablespoons flour and 1 cup stock in a small bowl until smooth. Place remaining 2 tablespoons flour and Parmesan cheese in a shallow dish. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and dredge both sides in the flour. Shake to remove excess.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown or no longer pink in the middle, about 2-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Reduce heat to medium-low, add the shallots and white wine, cook until reduced by half, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Stir in the reserved stock-flour mixture and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring until the sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tarragon, parsley, butter, and capers.
Pour sauce over chicken. Serve with a light salad or pasta.
