I made a new version of Chicken Picata tonight, and boy was it good.
Now, if I can remember what I did…
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts – not too thick. If you have 2 large chicken breasts, cut them in half lengthwise.
Season generously with Lemon Pepper seasoning.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet.
Cook chicken about 3 minutes per side until lightly browned.
Lower heat. Add 1/2 cup water and 1/4 cup lemon juice, and 1/4 cup capers (rinsed)
Let simmer while you prepare wide egg noodles per package directions.
Cut up 2 cups broccoli florets and throw into the pan with the chicken for the last few minutes until bright green and tender crisp.
Drain noodles.
Portion the noodles on to 4 plates.
Top with chicken and broccoli.
Spoon pan juices over the chicken. Make sure to get some capers on each plate.
Eat up!
Sorry its not fancier. I wanted to get it written down before I forgot what I did!
Now if I can just remember to take a picture!
