CHICKEN PICCATA WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA

Provided by Reeni

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon paprika
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded thin and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup butter, divided
1 cup dry white wine
⅓ cup chicken broth
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons capers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 (8 ounce) package angel hair pasta, cooked and drained

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, black pepper, and paprika in a shallow dish. Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, coating evenly; set aside. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; stir and cook the garlic until light brown, about 1 minute. Remove the garlic from the skillet and set aside.
  • Place 2 tablespoons of butter into the skillet with the olive oil. Cook the chicken pieces in the oil and butter over medium-high heat until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Pour the wine into the hot skillet and bring to a boil over high heat, scraping the browned pieces from the bottom and sides of the pan. Boil the wine until it is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the chicken broth, reserved garlic, lemon juice and capers. Cook for 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and parsley. Return the chicken pieces to the skillet and continue cooking over medium heat until the sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well.
  • Remove the chicken pieces to a serving dish and drizzle with a few tablespoons of the sauce and capers. Place the cooked angel hair pasta into the skillet with the remaining piccata sauce and toss to coat.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially for the chicken and the lemon juice. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the dish.
  • Make sure the chicken is pounded thin before cooking. This will help it to cook evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. If you do, the chicken will steam instead of fry and it won't be as crispy.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat so that it browns quickly. If you cook it over too low heat, it will take longer to cook and it will be more likely to dry out.
  • Use a good quality white wine for the sauce. A dry white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc or a Pinot Grigio, will work well.
  • Don't boil the sauce. Bring it to a simmer and then let it cook for a few minutes, until it has thickened slightly.
  • Add the capers and the parsley at the end of cooking. This will help to preserve their flavor and color.
  • Serve the chicken piccata immediately over angel hair pasta. The pasta should be cooked al dente, so that it still has a little bit of a bite to it.

Conclusion:

Chicken piccata is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of the crispy chicken, the tangy lemon sauce, and the delicate angel hair pasta is simply delicious. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
