Piccata de Pollo Chicken with Lemon Caper Sauce

Chef's notes

This is one of the simplest sauces for chicken. I typically make this dish with lightly floured chicken cutlets sautéed in olive oil and simmed tender in the sauce once deglazed.

The sauce is made with dry white wine or dry vermouth, chicken broth, butter, lemon slices, and capers. Recipe will serve 6.
