Wonderful Scents And Fantastic Flavor, This Chicken Piccata Recipe Is A Home Run!
Ingredients
2 large eggs
Sea or Himalayan salt
3/4 cup almond (GF) flour
Freshly ground black pepper
Four 5-ounce chicken breast, pounded thin
2 tablespoons ghee or chicken (Schmaltz) or duck fat
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock
3 tablespoons capers, drained
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Directions
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss the almond flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt
and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and spread the mixture on a large plate. Dip each chicken piece in the egg,
letting any excess drip back into the bowl, then coat the chicken with the almond flour.
In a large heavy skillet, heat the fat over medium high heat. Add the chicken and brown it, turning once,
5 to 6 minutes total. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
Add the garlic to the skillet and cook, stirring, until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the wine, stock, capers,
lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper; boil until the sauce is reduced by half. Whisk in
the butter until combined, then return the chicken to the skillet and let it gently cook through, about 2
minutes. Sprinkle the chicken with the parsley and serve. Enjoy!
