About Classic piccata

Classic Piccata is an Italian-inspired dish traditionally made with thinly sliced chicken or veal, pan-seared to golden perfection, and served with a tangy lemon-butter sauce. Capers add a salty, briny burst of flavor, while fresh parsley provides a light, herbaceous finish. Often enjoyed with a side of pasta or steamed vegetables, it’s characterized by its bright and zesty profile. While rich in protein from the lean meat, its butter-based sauce can contribute to a higher fat and calorie content. However, the inclusion of lemon juice, which is a natural source of vitamin C, and capers, which are low in calories, offers some nutritional perks. Opting for olive oil instead of butter or pairing the dish with whole-grain sides can enhance its healthiness. Classic Piccata remains a favorite comfort dish, blending vibrant flavors with simple, fresh ingredients.
