Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pinch salt
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup dry white wine
¼ cup lemon juice
¼ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons capers, drained
2 lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Mix together salt and flour in a small dish or plastic bag, then coat chicken and shake off excess. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Shake excess flour from chicken, then brown in hot oil until both sides are golden-brown, and the inside has turned white and firm, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Remove the chicken, and set aside in a warm place. Pour white wine into the skillet, and allow to boil as you dissolve the cooked bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the lemon juice, and allow to come to a boil, cook for a few minutes until reduced by half.
  • Sprinkle the cubed butter into the boiling sauce. Swirl and shake the pan vigorously to dissolve the butter, thus thickening the sauce. The butter must never come to rest, or the sauce will separate and become oily. Once the butter has completely incorporated, remove from heat and stir in capers.
  • To serve, pour lemon-caper sauce over the chicken, and serve with a wedge of lemon.

I made this recipe up after not finding very many recipes for chicken milanese to go with my pasta. It is quick and delicious.

Provided by Sherbear1

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 eggs
kosher salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, thinly sliced
¼ cup vegetable oil for frying
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
  • Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Spread flour in another dish and bread crumbs in a third dish.
  • Working with one piece at a time, gently press chicken into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded chicken onto a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry chicken in batches of 2 or 3 pieces until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer cooked chicken to a baking sheet and keep warm in preheated oven while cooking remaining chicken.
  • Serve with lemon wedges.

AMAZING ITALIAN LEMON BUTTER CHICKEN



Amazing Italian Lemon Butter Chicken image

About eight years ago, a dear Italian woman introduced me to this dish. She has since passed away and taken her recipes with her, as she had nothing written down. This is the closest of all my attempts to duplicate her dish. It is delicious and easier to make than it looks.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

¼ cup white wine
5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
5 tablespoons heavy cream
1 cup butter, chilled
salt and pepper to taste
½ pound dry farfalle (bow tie) pasta
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
salt and pepper to taste
4 ounces bacon
6 ounces mushrooms, sliced
6 ounces artichoke hearts, drained and halved
2 teaspoons capers, drained
chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • To make the sauce, pour the wine and lemon juice into a saucepan over medium heat. Cook at a low boil until the liquid is reduced by 1/3. Stir in cream, and simmer until it thickens. Gradually add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time to the sauce, stirring until completely incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, and keep warm.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
  • To make the chicken, heat oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. In a bowl, stir together flour, salt, and pepper. Lightly coat chicken with flour mixture. Without crowding, carefully place chicken in hot oil. (If necessary, cook in batches.) Fry until cooked through and golden brown on both sides. Remove the chicken to paper towels. Stir the bacon, mushrooms, artichokes, and capers into the oil; cook until the mushrooms are soft.
  • Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size strips, and return them to the skillet. Stir half of the lemon butter sauce into the chicken mixture.
  • To serve, place pasta in a large bowl. Stir the chicken mixture into the pasta. Taste, and adjust seasonings. Stir in additional lemon butter sauce as desired. Toss well, and garnish with parsley.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken breasts are evenly cooked, pound them to an even thickness before cooking.
  • Use a good quality olive oil for both the marinade and the cooking process. This will add flavor and richness to the dish.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy on both sides. This will ensure that the chicken is cooked through and has a delicious flavor.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with the lemon caper sauce. This will allow the chicken to stay crispy and the sauce to remain flavorful.

Conclusion:

Chicken Milanese with Lemon Caper Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is crispy and flavorful, while the sauce is tangy and refreshing. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
