CHICKEN PICCATA - DINNER AT HOME

 CHICKEN PICCATA

DINNER AT HOME

Improvised a homemade recipe for Chicken Piccata and it came out pretty darn good.  Entire family finished their plate and all were very satisfied.  This is a very fast and easy recipe that delivers a lot of flavor to a piece of chicken.  Serve with pasta and you have a dish worthy of an Italian restaurant for a fraction of the cost.
