CHICKEN WITH LEMON-CAPER SAUCE



Chicken with Lemon-Caper Sauce image

A rich chicken dish, perfect for a special meal.

Provided by ALISSASMOM

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

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.

SAUTEED CHICKEN WITH CAPERS



Sauteed Chicken with Capers image

A thinly pounded breast works as well for sauteing as it does for grilling. It cooks quickly but stays moist. Dredging the chicken in flour before cooking gives it a golden exterior and leaves bits in the pan that make a great base for a simple sauce.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 pounds total)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons champagne or white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons capers, plus 1 teaspoon brine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally. Place each half between sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness with a meat mallet or small skillet. Place flour on a plate. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then coat with flour, shaking off excess. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. In batches, cook chicken until browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side (add remaining oil to pan, if necessary). Transfer to a platter and tent with foil.
  • Add vinegar to pan and cook, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, 1 minute. Add butter and capers and brine; cook, stirring, until butter is melted. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over chicken and top with parsley.

GARLICKY CHICKEN WITH LEMON-ANCHOVY SAUCE



Garlicky Chicken With Lemon-Anchovy Sauce image

There's nothing wrong with a dinner of pan-seared chicken seasoned with salt and pepper. But there's everything right about the same chicken when you add anchovies, capers, garlic and plenty of lemon to the pan. What was once timid and a little dull turns vibrant, tangy and impossible to stop eating. And the only real extra work is chopping the garlic and a little parsley for garnish. In this dish, the cut of chicken is less important than the pungent pan sauce. Most people will probably want to use the workhorse of all poultry dinners, the boneless, skinless breasts. But the thighs cook nearly as quickly, and have a greater margin of error in terms of doneness. Overcook your breasts by even a minute, and you'll get dry, tough meat. Thighs are more forgiving. However, if your family insists on white meat, you can substitute breasts and subtract about 3 minutes from the cooking time. There is no need to mention the anchovies until after people have complimented you on the meal.

Categories     dinner, quick, weeknight, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (4 to 5 thighs)
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
6 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 anchovy fillets
2 tablespoons drained capers, patted dry
1 large pinch chile flakes
1 lemon, halved
Fresh chopped parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and let rest while you prepare the anchovy-garlic oil. Mince one of the garlic cloves and set it aside for later. In a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the 5 smashed whole garlic cloves, the anchovies, capers and chile. Let cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the anchovies, until the garlic browns around the edges and the anchovies dissolve, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the chicken thighs and cook until nicely browned on one side, 5 to 7 minutes. Flip the thighs, place the pan in the oven and cook another 5 to 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  • When chicken is done, transfer thighs to a plate (be careful, as the pan handle will be hot). Place skillet back on the heat and add minced garlic and the juice of one lemon half. Cook for about 30 seconds, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Return chicken to the pan and cook it in the sauce for another 15 to 30 seconds.
  • Transfer everything to a serving platter. Squeeze the remaining lemon half over the chicken and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve.

CHICKEN SCHNITZEL WITH BROWN BUTTER & CAPERS



Chicken schnitzel with brown butter & capers image

Chicken schnitzel with capers is a great supper choice, taking just 30 minutes. Use chicken breasts if you prefer, although thighs give a juicier result

Provided by Diana Henry

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 chicken thighs , skinless and boneless
100g flour , seasoned
2 medium eggs , beaten
100g white breadcrumbs
2 tbsp groundnut or olive oil
25g unsalted butter
lemon wedges , to serve
150g unsalted butter
2 tbsp capers , rinsed and patted dry
½ tbsp roughly chopped fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Open out the thighs and place them between two squares of baking parchment. Bash the thighs with a rolling pin to flatten them, but not so violently that the chicken flesh starts to break up.
  • Set out three shallow bowls. Fill one with the flour, the next with the beaten egg and the last one with the breadcrumbs. Season the thighs, then dip each one in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Set the coated thighs on a baking sheet.
  • Heat the oil and butter in a large frying pan. Cook the thighs over a medium heat for 4 mins each side. The coating should be golden and the chicken cooked through. Season, then transfer to a roasting tin lined with kitchen paper and keep warm in a low oven.
  • Wipe out the pan and add the butter. Cook until foaming and nutty (it will take about 3 mins for the butter to become brown), then add the capers and the rosemary and cook for 1 min more. Serve the schnitzels with the butter spooned over the top and the lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are evenly thick. This will help them cook evenly.
  • To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check if the chicken is cooked by cutting into it. The juices should run clear, with no pink in the center.
  • To make the schnitzel extra crispy, double-coat the chicken in the flour, egg, and breadcrumb mixture.
  • Be sure to fry the schnitzel in hot oil. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Serve the schnitzel immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Chicken schnitzel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own tastes. Whether you like it classic or with a twist, chicken schnitzel is sure to please everyone at the table.
