    Piccata Sauce

    Ingredients:

    4 pieces of veal, chicken or fish filets
    1/2 cup flour
    Salt and pepper to taste
    3 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
    6 Tbs. sweet butter
    1/2 cup white wine
    1/4 cup chicken stock
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    1/4 cup capers, drained and rinsed

    Preparation:

    Heat olive oil and 3 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat until very hot. Lightly coat each piece of meat in flour, then salt and pepper to taste. Cook in hot pan (approximately 1 minute on each side for veal or chicken and 3 minutes on each side for fish) and remove from pan.

    Deglaze the pan with the wine, add chicken stock and lemon juice and reduce slightly. Add capers and remaining 3 tablespoons butter (make sure the butter is cold -- this will help thicken the sauce). Return meat to pan and coat each side with sauce. Serve immediately.

    Serves 4

    Chef's Notes:

    • You will need to pound veal and chicken until very thin (approximately 1/4"). Place meat between waxed paper or brown paper and pound with a heavy pan or the flat side of a meat tenderizer.

    • You can easily double this recipe.
