chicken piccata

This is a recipe that is very tasty and not a whole lot of work. Ina Garten, however, has a chicken piccata recipe that takes the dish to the next level.

You know me. Salt and pepper are never, ever sufficient seasoning. One time I added Italian seasoning mix to the breadcrumbs Ina specifies. Most recently I added lemon garlic seasoning. It works well both ways. I also added capers to Ina’s sauce. You have to have capers with chicken piccata!

On my most recent venture with this recipe I served it with my own roasted red potatoes. It’s very simple. I clean and dice the potatoes. I line a baking pan with parchment paper and layer the potatoes on it. I spray them with olive oil, and sprinkle with dry parmesan cheese and Greek seasoning. Bake at 400 for 30 minutes.

The combination of the two makes for an enjoyable Saturday dinner.
