Now, chicken picatta will warm all hearts who love chicken and the taste of lemon and capers. What a combination of the tart lemon and the salty capers mixed with chicken broth and perhaps some white wine if you're up to it.I have named this dish after Kyra, who loves it everytime I make it!
4-6 thin skinless chicken breasts
2 lemons
1/4 cup of brined capers
2 cups of all purpose flour
5 Tablespoons of olive oil
6 Tablespoons of butter(unsalted)
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 fresh lemon juice
1/3 parlsey(garnish)
1/2 cup white wine(optional)
Melt 2 tablesppons of butter and oil in a large sauce pan
Flour the chicken breasts
Once oil has reached a high temperature, reduce heat and sautee chicken until lightly brown
Remove breasts from pan to side dish
Add some chicken broth,(about 1/2 cup) and a splash of white wine and the lemon juice, stir and stir
Let simmer
Add capers and stir again
Add the chicken back to pan
Let simmer, and taste
Does it need more chicken broth or lemon?
Add as needed
If it taste as if there is to much lemom add a tablespoon of butter
If it doesn't add more lemon
Play around with the taste by adding the above ingredients
Serve with pasta or rice or a nice green salad.
Oh! By the way Amy loves it too!
