How to Make a Delicious Chicken Piccata This Chicken PIccata recipe is the ultimate, delicious but so simple dinner party food. Easy to make but amazing to eat. The recipe shown in the video is for a larger group and serves 8 to 10 people. That is why I use a cookie sheet and the oven. For a large group, it’s not practical to use only the frying pan on the stove. (But, if you are making this for just 4 to 6 people, you could just do all of the cooking in the pan. In that case you would brown the chicken as shown in the video, and then, instead of putting the chicken in the oven on a pan, you could put it all back into the frying pan and cover it on the stove, on a low simmer for about 15 minutes). Serves 8-10 Ingredients 4 skinless and boneless chicken breasts, butterflied, pounded thin and then cut in half Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging 4 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/4 cup olive oil 2 lemons, 1 juiced, 1 sliced 1 cup dry white wine 1 cup chicken stock 1 bullion cube 2 tablespoons capers, drained 1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped Directions On a cutting board, fillet each chicken breast and trim off any fat. Place two pieces of chicken at a time between two pieces of parchment paper. Pound with a flat mallet, until the cutlets are about 1/4-inch thick. Set aside and repeat until all the chicken is pounded thin. Put some flour in a shallow dish. Season each side of the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge each cutlet …

1/4 cup good olive oil 3 tablespoons minced garlic (9 cloves) 1/3 cup dry white wine 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons) 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 4 boneless chicken breasts, skin on (6 to 8 ounces each) 1 lemon Directions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don’t allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish. Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn’t browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices. I got this recipe on the Food Network website.
