Ingredients

Chicken Piccata

Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Dredge them in flour, shaking off the excess.

2. Cook the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

3. Make the Sauce

In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic, sauté for 1 minute. Pour in white wine and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits. Add capers and let it simmer for 2 minutes.

4. Finish the Chicken

Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over it, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.

5. Prepare the Risotto

In a separate pot, bring chicken broth to a simmer. In another pan, heat olive oil and add Arborio rice, stirring for 1-2 minutes. Gradually add broth, stirring constantly until rice is creamy and al dente, about 18-20 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese.

6. Cook the Asparagus

Blanch asparagus in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender. Drain and set aside.

7. Serve

Plate the risotto, top with chicken piccata, drizzle with lemon-caper butter sauce, and serve with asparagus on the side.
