Chicken Piccata Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off any excess.

2. 2

   Sear the Chicken

   In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

3. 3

   Make the Sauce

   In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

4. 4

   Add Capers

   Stir in the capers and let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly reduced.

5. 5

   Combine and Serve

   Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
