Remember back in November, when I posted about the in-home cooking class Kevin bought me for Christmas last year? Well, I finally got up the nerve to try to make this scrumptious Chicken Picatta by myself... and you know what? It's not even hard! My excuse was that I didn't have a meat pounder to pound my chicken flat, but in reality, I was just intimidated for some reason.
When Kevin's brother Dennis gave me a gift card to Sur La Table this Christmas, I figured I have no more excuses, so I ordered my meat pounder and got to work. (Side note: they also sell thin cut chicken breasts at the grocery store, so you can totally just skip the pounding thing.)
This dish is a little fussy because you can really only cook one chicken breast at a time in the skillet, so I had two skillets going. This isn't a dish to make for a crowd, at least the way I make it. But you could pull it off with 4 people if you had a way to keep the first two warm while you cooked the last two. They don't take very long to cook at all.
I served it over a tri-colored angel hair pasta that I picked up at Homegoods... pretty and yummy, this is a great dish to make for company!
