Chicken piccata

Piccata is an Italian dish of thin pan-fried flour-dredged meat in a sauce of lemon juice, butter, parsley, and often capers. In Italian cuisine piccata is prepared using veal , whereas in Italian-American cuisine, chicken is more commonly used. A similar dish, pesce spada con capperi e limone, is made with swordfish. Piccata, the past passive participle of piccare, literally means 'larded', 'seasoned', or 'pounded flat'. The meat is cut thin and flattened to an even thickness with a tenderizer. It is seasoned and dredged in flour before being browned in butter or olive oil.
