Wonderful piccata! I served this over linguine and loved the addition of the onions and mushrooms. Thanks Kitten.

This is another outstanding chicken recipe from Kittencal. This is more than a 5-star recipe! We loved it and will definitely make it again. I didn't change a thing.

This made for a delicious dinner, served over linguine!!! I loved the addition of the onion and mushroom flavors to the standard piccata. I used 4 thin sliced chicken cutlets(boneless/skinless), 1 egg mixed with 2 tablespoons milk(which was plenty). After browning the chicken, I had to add a bit more butter and oil to cook the onion and mushrooms, but otherwise followed recipe as written. Thanks Kittencal for another great recipe.
