Chicken Piccata Low Fat

    Cuisine:

    I'm going to make a confession - I have never eaten a caper before. I'm going to make a 2nd confession - I hope I never eat another caper again. Other than eating a caper, the chicken was absolutely delicious. I enjoyed pounding the chicken to a nice, thin piece of meat that cooked up quickly. Instead of olive oil, I substituted a tablespoon of organic butter. The inside of the chicken was moist and the outside slightly crisp, a perfect contrast. The flavor was superb! A very easy and tasty dinner. Thank you very much for posting this recipe.

    Chicken Piccata Low Fat, There is no butter in this using just a bit of olive oil that keeps the good fat in you and the bad fat (butter) off you This is a great light dish for those romantic evening when you don ‘t want to get weighed down!, I’m going to make a confession – I have never eaten a caper before I’m going to make a 2nd confession – I hope I never eat another caper again Other than eating a caper, the chicken was absolutely delicious I enjoyed pounding the chicken to a nice, thin piece of meat that cooked up quickly Instead of olive oil, I substituted a tablespoon of organic butter The inside of the chicken was moist and the outside slightly crisp, a perfect contrast The flavor was superb! A very easy and tasty dinner Thank you very much for posting this recipe , Low calorie dishes seldom taste this good!! I made this dish per the recipe except for 2 small changes I added about 1/2 cup of artichoke hearts quartered, then reduced the lemon juice to 1 tbsp The tartness of the artichokes went well with the salty capers The chicken was tender and succulent I did pound it out fairly thin so it would cook quickly and brown without burning I did find I wanted a little more sauce so I just added about 1/4 cup more broth and a pinch of flour to thicken it up I served it with sauteed Italian squash and fresh mushrooms This is a weight friendly dish my scales tell me so 🙂 Thank you Rita
