Classic Chicken Piccata
- 2 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Butterflied, Sliced Through In Half
- Kosher Salt And Ground Black Pepper
- 1 cup All-purpose Flour
- 4 Tablespoons Butter, Divided
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 13 cups Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
- 1 cup Chicken Stock
- 1/4 cups Brined Capers
- 1/2 cups Dry White Wine
- 13 cups Freshly Chopped Parsley
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Dredge chicken in flour.
- Shake off excess flour and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of butter with olive oil.
- When butter and oil start to sizzle, add chicken and cook for approximately 3 minutes.
- Once chicken is browned, carefully flip and cook the other side for another 3 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate.
- Set aside.
- Remove skillet from heat and add lemon juice, chicken stock, capers, and white wine.
- Return to heat and bring to a boil.
- Scrape up the brown bits from the pan for extra flavor.
- Check for seasoning.
- Return chicken to pan and simmer for about 5 minutes or until inside of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F. Transfer chicken to a platter.
- Add remaining tablespoon of butter to sauce.
- Add another splash of wine and/or stock if needed.
- Whisk vigorously.
- Drizzle the sauce over chicken and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
- Serve on its own or over pasta.
- Note: I like to serve this over spaghetti, and when doing so, I always make a bit of extra sauce so that I can toss the noodles into it.
- You can do this by adding some extra butter, stock, and wine after removing the chicken for the last time.
