LEMON CHICKEN PICCATA RECIPE
This flavor-packed lemon chicken piccata comes together in 20 minutes! Chicken cutlets are seared in a bit of extra virgin olive oil, then simmered in a bright lemony sauce with capers. I use a little dry white wine in the piccata sauce, but if you do not use alcohol, substitute with an equal amount of chicken broth. Toss chicken piccata with pasta, or serve it with lemon rice, boiled potatoes, crispy Brussels sprouts, or a colorful Shirazi salad.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200 degrees F (this is to keep the chicken warm as you work in batches).
- Pat the chicken breast pieces dry and season with kosher salt and black pepper on both sides. Lightly coat the chicken on both sides with the flour (shake off any excess flour).
- In a large cast iron skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Cook the chicken on 1 side for about 3 minutes, then turn over to cook for another 3 minutes (do this in batches and do not crowd the pan).To keep the chicken warm, place the cooked chicken pieces in an oven-save dish and keep them in warm oven while you finish.
- Prepare the lemon sauce. In the same skillet (over medium heat), add a little bit more extra virgin olive oil. Add the ghee (or butter, if you prefer). When the ghee melts, stir in the lemon juice, wine and capers. Bring the sauce to a boil, scrapping off any browned bits from cooking the chicken earlier.
- Now, return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the sauce. Lower the heat, and let simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, basting the top of the chicken with the sauce.
- Remove from the heat and garnish with parsley. Serve with plain orzo and your favorite salad (more suggested sides in post).

Steps:
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well. Season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste. Working one at a time, dredge chicken in flour. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook, flipping once, until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes on each side. Set aside and keep warm. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add garlic and shallots, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, wine and lemon juice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk in heavy cream until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in capers. Serve immediately with pasta and chicken, garnished with parsley, if desired.

CHICKEN SCALOPPINI WITH LEMON-CAPER SAUCE
Steps:
- Put the flour in a large shallow dish and season with the salt and pepper. Pat the chicken scaloppini dry with paper towels, then put them in the flour, coating the chicken on both sides. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a 14-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the floured chicken and cook, in batches if needed, until deeply golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a wire rack-lined sheet tray.
- Reduce the heat under the same cast-iron skillet and add the onion, garlic and rosemary. Stir occasionally and cook until the onions are translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the butter and capers and scrape the skillet as the butter melts to deglaze. Add the chicken stock and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Add the chicken pieces back to warm through and allow the sauce to reduce, another 2 to 3 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken to coat.
- Garnish with the lemon supremes and serve.

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.
