CHICKEN THIGH PICCATA

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the chicken pieces, skin-side down, and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then remove to a sheet tray. Place the chicken in the oven and cook until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Place the saute pan back on the heat over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of the butter along with the garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook until the garlic softens and becomes aromatic, 1 to 2 minutes. Next, add the white wine and reduce slightly, 2 to 3 minutes, before adding the chicken stock.
• Bring the liquid to a strong simmer, 2 to 3 minutes, then add the capers and lemon juice. Remove from the heat and swirl in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and the parsley. Place the chicken pieces back in the pan or plate the chicken and spoon the sauce over the top.

CHICKEN PICCATA

Steps:

• Place chicken between plastic wrap and pound evenly until about 1/4 inch thick.
• Spread flour in a shallow dish; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; whisk to combine. Place chicken in seasoned flour, turning to coat thoroughly, then tap off the excess.
• Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until butter starts to sizzle. Cook the chicken in batches, if necessary, to avoid crowding the pan (the cutlets should fit snugly in a single layer) until golden and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes for each side. The cooking time will depend on the thickness of the cutlet. Transfer the chicken to a platter. Pour out any excess fat from the pan.
• Return pan to medium heat and add wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 30 seconds. (If the liquid is reducing too quickly -- before all the browned bits have been incorporated -- remove the pan from the heat.) Remove the pan from the heat. Add lemon juice, capers, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter and swirl until melted and combined, then add parsley and season with salt as desired.
• Immediately pour the sauce over the chicken, and serve.
