Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- salt and black pepper , to taste
- ⅓ cup flour (I used gluten free flour)
- 4 Tablespoon butter
- 4 Tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup chicken stock or dry white wine
- 2 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoon shallots chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 Tablespoon drained capers
- 2 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Place each chicken breast between a plastic wrap and lightly pound it to 1/4-inch thickness. Season both sides of chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Place flour in a shallow dish, and dip chicken breasts into flour to coat, shake off excess.
- Heat 2 Tbsp butter and 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken (in batches if necessary) to the skillet and cook until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a platter; cover with foil to keep warm.
- Add remaining 2 Tbsp olive oil, chicken stock (or white wine), lemon juice, shallots and minced garlic to the skillet. Boil until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in capers and remaining 2 Tbsp butter.
- Plate the chicken and pour the lemon piccata sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle with parsley.
