while i'm chowing down i'm usually thinking to myself, "self, you should make this!"
but then, a week later, self forgets to defrost the chicken & decides that peanut butter & jelly is way better....& easier.
but when i DO remember to defrost the chicken, this recipe is quick & easy- just like promised.
Easy Chicken Piccata (adapted from eat yourself skinny)
You Need
1/4 cup + 1 tsp. all-purpose flour
3 large boneless, skinless chicken cutlets, cut in half longways
1/8 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
2 tbsp canola oil
2 tbsp capers, rinsed
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup dry vermouth
4 (2-inch) strips lemon zest
4 tsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp unsalted butter, chilled
1/2 box angel hair pasta, cooked & drained

Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until simmering. Lay 3 cutlets in the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on the first side or until golden brown. Flip the cutlets over and continue to cook until the meat is no longer pink, about 1 minute.

Add the capers and garlic to the oil left in the skillet, return to medium heat and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Stir in the remaining 1 tsp. flour until incorporated.
