Creamy Lemon Chicken Piccatta

Creamy Lemon Chicken Piccatta

It is just like the classic chicken piccata dish, but with the added lemon tang. It gives it such a fresh and delicious taste to this creamy sauce. The chicken has a delicious breading on the outside and it is perfect served over some pasta. Everyone in my family loved this meal. It had such a delicious flavor and will be one that we make again and again!

Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS

• 4 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
• salt and pepper to taste
• ¼ cup all purpose flour
• 2 Tablespoons Butter
• 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 2 whole Lemons
• ¾ Cup Heavy Cream
• ¼ cup capers
• Chopped parsley, for garnish
• 1 pound Angel Hair Pasta

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. (If the chicken breasts are overly thick, pound them to be thinner. Cooking time will be shorter.) Salt and pepper each side of the chicken breasts and dredge in the flour. Put the chicken breasts in the skillet. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked throughout and no longer pink. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
2. Turn the heat to medium low. Add broth, juice from both lemons, heavy cream, and capers. Bring the sauce to a boil and return to medium low heat. Test the sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed. Allow the sauce to cook and bubble for about 3 minutes.
3. Serve the chicken over cooked pasta and spoon the sauce over both. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.
