Caper And Lemon Chutney Recipes

LEMON CAPER BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Crush capers in a small bowl with the back of a spoon.
• Melt 1/2 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until the butter foams and is golden; saute capers until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add lemon juice, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring frequently, until liquid is reduced by one-third, 1 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Stir cold butter and savory into lemon mixture, stirring constantly until butter is completely melted and sauce is shiny and thick, about 1 minute.

LEMON CAPER CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a small dish, combine flour and pepper. Lightly coat chicken in flour, shaking off any excess. Set aside. Heat olive oil in large fry pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for about 5 minutes on each side or until golden. Remove chicken and set aside. Add onion and lemon juice to pan and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic, vegetable broth, capers, lemon zest and sugar and cook for about 2 minutes more. Reduce heat to low; return chicken to pan. Cover with a lid and simmer for about 10 minutes, turning chicken once. Be careful not to boil. Add parsley and Benefiber®, mixing well.

LEMON-CAPER DRESSING

Steps:

• On a cutting board, smash and coarsely mince the garlic. Add 10 grinds of fresh pepper and the capers to the garlic. Chop and press down on the mixture with the side of your knife until a coarse paste forms.
• Transfer the paste to a bowl, then stir in the lemon juice, followed by the Parmesan. Slowly add in the olive oil, stirring until emulsified. Taste on a lettuce leaf (or whatever you're dressing) and adjust as needed with acid (lemon), fat (olive oil), and salt (capers and cheese).

CHICKEN WITH LEMON-CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix together salt and flour in a small dish or plastic bag, then coat chicken and shake off excess. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Shake excess flour from chicken, then brown in hot oil until both sides are golden-brown, and the inside has turned white and firm, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Remove the chicken, and set aside in a warm place. Pour white wine into the skillet, and allow to boil as you dissolve the cooked bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the lemon juice, and allow to come to a boil, cook for a few minutes until reduced by half.
• Sprinkle the cubed butter into the boiling sauce. Swirl and shake the pan vigorously to dissolve the butter, thus thickening the sauce. The butter must never come to rest, or the sauce will separate and become oily. Once the butter has completely incorporated, remove from heat and stir in capers.
• To serve, pour lemon-caper sauce over the chicken, and serve with a wedge of lemon.

FISH WITH LEMON, BUTTER, CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the flour, salt and pepper. Coat the fish in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess flour. Heat half the butter to foaming over medium high heat in a heavy based pan.
• Cook the fish to your liking and remove to serving plates.
• Add the remaining butter, juice, zest, capers and parsley. Heat for a minute then serve over the fish sharing the capers between the plates.

CAPER-LEMON BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together all ingredients with a flexible spatula until well combined. Place butter mixture on the center of a sheet of parchment paper then loosely fold paper in half towards you and roll back and forth to form butter into a log pressing to remove any air pockets. Wrap parchment around butter, and then twist ends to seal and tie with twine. Refrigerate until firm, about an hour.
