Chicken Piccata II
Chicken piccata is a delicious Italian dish made with chicken breasts that are pounded thin, dredged in flour, and sautéed in a tangy lemon and caper sauce. It’s a flavorful and bright dish that is often served with pasta or rice.
Ingredients
Method
- Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound with a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
- Dredge the chicken breasts in flour, shaking off any excess.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chicken broth, lemon juice, and capers. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
- Serve the chicken piccata garnished with chopped parsley.
- Enjoy!
