A simple yet exquisite recipe for Chicken Piccata that offers a bright, zesty flavor with a buttery sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (around 6 ounces each)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 1 cup chicken broth (make sure it’s halal)
  • 1/4 cup capers, rinsed and drained
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Start by gently pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Spread the flour on a large plate. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess.
  3. Add the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  4. Using the same skillet, add the remaining butter, fresh lemon juice, and chicken broth. Scrape the bottom of the pan and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add the capers to the sauce and let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet, swirling them in the sauce, and serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

For a twist, consider adding sliced mushrooms or swapping capers for green olives. Use fresh lemons for the best flavor.
