Awesome Chicken Piccata

1. 1

   Pound chicken to an even thickness (put under wax paper or plastic wrap so your kitchen is not attacked by flying pieces of chicken) then season the chicken with salt and pepper and saute in a very hot pan with a small amount of oil.

2. 2

   You are not looking to cook the chicken all the way just get it nice and brown on both sides then remove.

3. 3

   Turn down the heat to medium and saute the shallots until soft.

4. 4

   Deglaze the pan with white wine.

5. 5

   Keep over the heat to reduce the wine by 1/2.

6. 6

   then add the lemon juice and capers.

7. 7

   Cook for about a minute.

8. 8

   Add the cold butter in pieces and stir or swirl the pan as it melts.

9. 9

   The butter should make the sauce thicken slightly and become creamy.

10. 10

    When the butter is melted add the chicken back to the pan and coat it with the sauce.

11. 11

    Simmer until the chicken is done this can take up to 5 minutes (depending on the thickness of the chicken)

12. 12

    Serve immediately, over pasta or personally I like mine with roasted garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli!
