🍋 Creamy Chicken Piccata 🍋

Ingredients serve for 3-4 people:

• 500g boneless skinless chicken breasts • 5-6 tbsp flour • 4 tbsp olive oil • 4 cloves of garlic • 250 ml of chicken broth • 60 ml of light cream • 3 tbsp of capers • ½ lemon juice • 1 tbsp butter • 4-5 tbsp of parmesan cheese • 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley • Salt and pepper

Steps:

1. Slice the chicken breasts in half width wise.
2. Place them in between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap and pound them with a mallet until they are about ½ cm thick. If you don’t have a mallet just borrow a hammer like me 😅
3. Add the flour to a plate and season with salt and pepper.
4. Coat the chicken breasts on both sides in the flour. Set on a plate.
5. Add the olive oil to a large frying pan over high heat. Once the oil is heated add in the chicken breasts and turn the heat down to medium.
6. Cook the chicken until browned and halfway cooked through and flip over.
7. Turn the heat down to low and cook until it is cooked throughout.
8. Remove the chicken breasts and set aside.
9. Add the butter, garlic and capers to the pan where the chicken was cooked and saute for 1 to 2 minutes or until very lightly browned.
10. Add in the broth and juice of ½ lemon, add the cream. Season it with salt and pepper.
11. Add the chicken breasts and cook until the liquid is half gone.
12. Finish with parsley, 1 tbsp of lemon juice, parmesan and lemon slices.
13. Serve it with pasta or rice. Enjoy! 🕺🏻
