Units
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup capers
- 1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- Cooked linguine, for serving
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place them between plastic wrap and gently pound to an even thickness.
- Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes. Place flour in the first dish, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third.
- Coat each chicken breast in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter. Add diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté until softened.
- Stir in capers and chopped artichoke hearts.
- Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, and let it simmer for a minute or two.
- Reduce the heat to low, and add heavy cream. Stir until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce and veggies over them. Let them warm in the sauce for a minute.
- Serve the chicken piccata schnitzel over cooked linguine.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Notes
Feel free to adjust the lemon juice and capers to your taste preferences. You’ll also want to make sure the chicken breasts are evenly pounded for even cooking. Choose high-quality marinated artichoke hearts for enhanced flavor and serve with a side of garlic bread for a complete meal. Enjoy!
