By Diana Rattray, About.com

Chicken piccata recipe with lemon and pasta.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless chicken breast halves, without skin
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp butter
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups dry white wine
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp capers, drained
  • 1/2 cup chopped parsley
  • 4 cups cooked linguine, about 8 oz uncooked

Preparation:

Flatten chicken breasts evenly to about 1/4 inch thickness between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Mix flour, salt, and pepper; dredge chicken in flour mixture. Heat 1 teaspoon of butter and 1 tsp of olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken, cook 3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Add 3/4 cup of white wine, lemon juice, and capers to pan. Scrape pan to loosen brown bits and cook for 2 minutes. Remove chicken and keep warm. Stir in remaining white wine and cook over high heat for about 5 minutes, or until reduced to 1/2 cup. Stir in a teaspoon of butter and the chopped parsley. Serve over linguine or other pasta, and drizzle with sauce. Serves 4
