Chicken Piccata

This healthier version of the classic Italian restaurant dish of lemony chicken or veal makes an elegant weeknight meal – or a great dish to serve company.

Directions

Combine flour, salt and pepper on a plate. Dredge chicken breasts in flour mixture and set aside.
Heat oil in an Anolon Nouvelle Copper Luxe Onyx Skillet over medium high. Add chicken, and cook 5-6 minutes or until golden on the underside. A meat thermometer stuck horizontally in the center should register 160°F. Remove from pan.
Add the wine and lemon juice to the skillet, scraping any bits off the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring, 3 minutes, or until liquid becomes syrupy. Remove from heat and stir in butter, allowing it to completely melt. Stir in capers.
Serve chicken with sauce and capers spooned over the top.
