Chicken Piccata

Ingredients:
4 skinless chicken breasts, pounded flat (An easy way: place chicken between two wax paper sheets)
Flour to coat
1 T olive oil
1/4 cup drinking sherry or dry white wine
1 small onion, minced
Juice of 1 lemon, no seeds!
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup Italian parsley
3 T capers
Salt and Pepper
 

Preparation
Coat the chicken in flour and shake off excess.

Heat the olive oil in sauté pan over medium high heat.

Sauté the chicken about two minutes on each side, just until it is browned on the outside.

Add the wine or sherry to deglaze the pan, and scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the pan and it will be an integral part of this piquant and refreshing dish.

Add garlic and onions. Sauté for approximately three minutes.

Add the lemon juice, pepper, butter, chicken broth and capers, and sauté for approximately two minutes.

Add the chicken back in and sauté until the chicken is done, about five minutes.

Makes about 4 servings

Could anything be any easier? I tell you, this only takes about 20 minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice pilaf. And, it is really terrific!

Buon appetito always!
