How To Make Chicken Piccata

*Free printable recipe card is available at the end of the post.

First, tenderize the chicken breasts with a meat pounder.

Next season your chicken with salt and pepper and then dredge the chicken in flour and shake off the excess.

Now melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet. When the butter and oil start to sizzle, add your chicken. When the chicken is browned, flip and cook on the other side. Transfer to plate. Repeat, adding more oil and butter as needed, until all the chicken is cooked.

Now for the sauce.

Add the lemon juice, broth and capers to the same pan. Bring to boil, scraping up brown bits from the pan for extra flavor.

Next return all the chicken to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes.

Then transfer chicken to a serving platter.

Finally, add more butter to the sauce, whisk vigorously and simmer as all the flavors mingle together.

Then pour your sauce over the chicken and garnish with parsley.

And that’s it. I hope you enjoy your homemade chicken piccata as much as we do. Serve with your favorite vegetables and gluten-free pasta or rice. Buon appetito.
