Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spaghetti

    Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sauté for about 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and toss in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Sauté until the mushrooms are tender, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Add the capers, lemon juice, and white wine to the skillet. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Return the chicken to the skillet and coat it in the sauce. Let it heat through for a couple of minutes. Serve the chicken piccata over the cooked spaghetti and spoon extra sauce on top.
