I love chicken piccata and this is the best one I have ever eaten! This recipe cooks the chicken perfectly, very tender and juicy. The sauce is amazing! I used a 2004 Montes Chardonnay Reserve so I was very glad to have a delicious dish to cook with and then taste the wine with! I was generous with the flour, salt, and pepper. I used whole wheat flour and Lawry's Seasoned Salt for my salt. Thank you so very much for this fabulous recipe!!!!!!

Build a good many of our meals around chicken, enjoy finding new recipes that add variety. Followed through on Chef 377446 idea and doubled the 'sauce'- good there was extra - tasted great! The lemon slices and the sprinkling of parsley made for a wow in presentation. Thank you for sharing.
