Chicken Piccata
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Intermediate
Total: 30 min
Prep: 15 min
Cook: 15 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients
2 split (1 whole) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 extra-large egg
1/2 tablespoon water
3/4 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs
Good olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, divided
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons), lemon halves reserved
1/2 cup dry white wine
Sliced lemon, for serving
Chopped fresh parsley leaves, for serving
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap and pound out to 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
Mix the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper in a shallow plate. In a second plate, beat the egg and 1/2 tablespoon of water together. Place the bread crumbs on a third plate. Dip each chicken breast first in the flour, shake off the excess, and then dip in the egg and bread crumb mixtures.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium to medium-low heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 2 minutes on each side, until browned. Place them on the sheet pan and allow them to bake for 5 to 10 minutes while you make the sauce.
For the sauce, wipe out the saute pan with a dry paper towel. Over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and then add the lemon juice, wine, the reserved lemon halves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Boil over high heat until reduced in half, about 2 minutes. Off the heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and swirl to combine. Discard the lemon halves and serve 1 chicken breast on each plate. Spoon on the sauce and serve with a slice of lemon and a sprinkling of fresh parsley.

When Food Network was worth watching.. not so much now..same with HGTV
Who else just randomly clicks on these vids? I personally love to cook and try to make elaborate meals, but sometimes I want to watch these awesome videos
why would you make the same thing every week based on the day? that seems a bit OCD?
for the record bmws are crappy cars. whats worse? a convertible bmw that is older. serious lapse in judgement.
why would you wipe out the fondant and get rid of all the tasty bits for the sauce??
Absolutely delicious chicken picata.
That tongue touched a raw chicken on the skillet when you flipped the breast fillet and now you picked a cooked chicken with it without washing. That's how you get food poisoning.
They must have stomachs like pitbulls, she didn't rinse the meat or lemons. It looked like she took it straight out the package into seasoning and cooking. Didn't see her wash her hands either but at least she used seasoning, they're usually bad at that too
Got to make something special for Jeffrey
I never cook but I’ve watched Ina for years.
Awe, poor Jeffrey….the guy has been eating roast chicken on Friday for 30 years, tonight he is getting surprise chicken cutlets….I would be all "why today"? all nite in my head,😹😹😹
Im able to.prove in court house
Its melissa and bill gates im able to see from my phone astronauts its involved as well im never have the intention to interrupt privacy its deeply offending me
No capers 😢
THAT CHICKEN PICCATA SMELL SO DELISHIOUS.👍
CHICKEN PICCATA WITH LEMON SAUCE SMELLS SO DELISHIOUS WITH MASHED POTATOES. MMM MMM!
YOU MAKE ME VERY HUNGRY INA GARTEN.
I WATCHED YOUR SHOW'S ALL THE TIME ON SPECTRUM TV ON ROKU. ON FOOD NETWORK.
I would trade lives with Jeffery if I knew I was getting fed like this
Girl where’s the seasonings.
Dear Ina. Chicken Piccata must have capers. Where are your capers?
Love chicken piccata
what about the recipes for marinated and roasted red onion and BUTTERMILK mash potatoes??? YUM-always a hit Ina!!
The breadcrumbs and egg are a needless addition, not least because breadcrumbs inevitably burn and mean you must wipe out the pan – losing all the chicken frond and flavour that helps make the piccata sauce so great!
Seasoned flour on the chicken breasts is all you need – it gives a much better final texture to the chicken, and the flour coating slightly thickens the finished sauce. It all works better this way!
Cooking the chicken, removing it (and placing under loose foil) while you make the sauce, then adding it back into the lemon/wine/butter pan sauce, also gives a better result than drying out that delicate breast meat in the oven!
Chicken Piccata is delicious because of the effect that sauce has, soaked into the crispy chicken. This method sadly misses the point of Chicken Piccata – it's not the same recipe, it's just chicken escalopes with a lemon butter sauce! Love you Ina (and your hubby!) but in my view this was not your best work.
Ooh looks delicious and I’m adding some capers to my sauce.
Most beautiful thing is to cook for your family and specially husband ❤ i cook all the time and he is my partner in all my cooking 😂 love the video and old time recipes
Ina, I absolutely adore you and have watched your shows for years. I love your outrageous brownies and probably have made them more than a dozen times. Every body keeps asking for them. Anyway, I came across this recipe and I probably make this dish twice a month at least. Seeing the egg wash and crumbs remind me of schnitzel which mom made very frequently when I was growing up. To me, it's lemon schnitzel not piccata.😂🤣🤦♀️♥️kisses.
Now that people aren't cooking, they can't show these instructional shows anymore…such a shame.
Jeffery is a very very lucky man. Having every meal cooked with love and affection. Ina and Jeffery are examples of how couple should be supportive appreciative admire love and respect.
My queen
She is so beautiful. With her little freckles and i trust what she is doing. But where are the capers! lol :)And i love how she just turfs the egg at the start
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Yes I really miss her I enjoyed her show so much
I'm a purist. If I don't get capers in my piccata, then I take a flame-thrower to the place. Also, it should be served atop a bed of pasta no thicker than Fedelini.
No capers?
This looks great yum 😋
Nope, this is not how I was taught. Looks good, but I will pass on this recipe. Ciao
