Chicken Piccata

Instructions

1. Slice each chicken breast into 2-3 long strips. Place each strip of chicken breast in between 2 pieces of parchment or wax paper. Pound lightly with a kitchen mallet until thin. Dredge lightly in flour which has been seasoned with salt and pepper.
2. Heat a little olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium to high heat. When the oil and butter is hot, sauté chicken strips for a few minutes until lightly browned and partially cooked through. Remove from skillet onto a platter.
3. Add sliced mushrooms and garlic, cooking gently over medium to low heat. Deglaze pan with stock and white wine and cook for a few more minutes, reducing stock and wine over medium heat. Add lemon juice and a little lemon zest if you like. Continue cooking and stirring for about 5 more minutes.
4. Add chicken breasts back into skillet and simmer on low for 5-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove chicken from skillet and place on platter. Pour over sauce and garnish with chopped green onions and parsley. Serve with pasta of your choice.
