Chicken Picatta Recipe
I don't recall where I picked up this recipe, but I stumbled across it last evening and fixed it because it's a quick recipe. It's also delicious. While it's still fresh in mind...

Ingredients
  • 3 boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 4 Tb canola oil
  • 2 Tb butter
  • 1 large shallot, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • lemon pepper
  • 2 Tb chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 Tb capers, mashed
  • squirt of lemon juice (technically, the juice from one lemon)
  • 1/2 cup sweet vermouth
  • hot, buttered, broad noodles

Directions
  1. Lightly sprinkle the chicken breasts with lemon pepper, and perhaps a bit of additional plain pepper. Dredge them in a bowl containing 1/2 cup flour.
  2. Melt 2 Tb butter in a skillet along with 4 Tb canola oil. When hot, add the shallots, onion, and garlic. Cook until some of the bits begin to brown. Remove from skillet and place in a finger bowl for later addition back to the chicken.
  3. Add the chicken breasts to the oil and very lightly brown on both sides. Turn the breasts with a fork so that you do not disturb the crust and seasoning.
  4. Return the onions and shallots to the skillet. Add the vermouth, capers and parsley. Allow the vermouth to concentrate and the onions to carmelize.
  5. Remove and serve over hot buttered noodles. Scrape the carmelized onion mixture from the bottom of the skillet and use like gravy.

This is a favorite at our house! Will try it real soon - sounds delicious!


I know you'll enjoy it. The original recipe called for grated lemon rind, but the lemon pepper is a good substitute.


This sounds really, really good! Love the addition of capers and vermouth here!


Sounds delish!!


Nicely done! 5 and saved and flagged.
