Chicken Piccata

By

this piccata is so rich that one breast half can serve two people.

Ingredients

  • Season:
  • 4 chicken cutlets
  • Saute in:
  • 2 T. vegetable oil
  • Deglaze with:
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1 t. garlic, minced
  • Add:
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 T. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 T. capers, drained
  • Sauteed cutlets
  • Finish with:
  • 2 T. unsalted butter
  • Fresh lemon slices

Preparation

Step 1

Season cutlets with salt and pepper then dust with flour. Spray a saute pan with nonstick spray, add vegetable oil, and heat over medium-high.

Saute cutlets 2–3 minutes on one side. Flip the cutlets over and saute the other side 1–2 minutes with the pan covered. Transfer cutlets to a warm plate; pour off fat from the pan.

Deglaze pan with wine and add minced garlic. Cook until garlic is slightly brown and liquid is nearly gone, about 2 minutes.

Add broth, lemon juice, and capers. Return cutlets to pan and cook on each side 1 minute. Transfer cutlets to a warm plate.

Finish with butter and lemon slices. Once butter melts, pour sauce over cutlets.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve.
