Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, coating evenly and shaking off excess flour mixture; set aside. 

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; stir and cook the garlic until light brown, about 1 minute. Remove garlic and set aside.

Place butter and olive oil into the skillet. Add chicken and cook over medium-high heat until brown, about 5 minutes per side. 

Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

Pour wine into the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat, scraping browned pieces from the bottom and sides of the pan. Boil until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. 

7 Whisk in broth, reserved garlic, lemon juice and capers. Cook for 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Stir in remaining butter and parsley.

Fill a large pot with water, bring to a boil over high heat.

Return chicken to the skillet and continue cooking over medium heat until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.

10 When water comes to a boil, add salt and then pasta, and cook until al dente, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain. 

11 Remove chicken and reserve 2 to 4 tablespoons of sauce and capers. 

12 Add pasta to the skillet and toss to coat with remaining sauce.

13 Serve chicken with pasta and drizzle with reserved sauce and capers. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/12″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1584307889277{margin-top: 10px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator color=”black” border_width=”2″ el_width=”60″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1589497543296{border-radius: 5px !important;}”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”5/6″][vc_column_text]NOTES[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

  • You can serve the chicken with any long pasta noodle you wish, such as linguine, fettuccine or egg noodles
  • To slice your chicken breasts in half (butterflying), cut down the side, lengthwise, and open them like you’d open a book, then cut all the way through
  • We recommend using a dry white wine like Sauvignon Blanc 
  • This piccata sauce pairs very well with veal as well
