Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Dredge the chicken in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Garlic

    In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  3. 5

    Add Artichokes, Capers, and Tomatoes

    Stir in the artichoke hearts, capers, and oven-roasted tomatoes. Cook for 2-3 minutes.

  4. 6

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Bring to a simmer.

  5. 7

    Return Chicken to the Skillet

    Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the chicken. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.

Finishing Touch

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley and basil. Serve the chicken piccata with the sauce spooned over the top.
