About Lemon picata chicken

Lemon Piccata Chicken is a flavorful Italian-inspired dish featuring tender, pan-seared chicken breasts simmered in a tangy lemon and caper sauce. Traditionally served with pasta or a side of roasted vegetables, this dish combines zesty citrus notes with a rich, buttery finish. Made with olive oil, fresh lemon juice, garlic, and capers, it’s packed with bold flavors and vibrant aromas. High in protein and low in carbohydrates, Lemon Piccata Chicken can be a healthy option when prepared with minimal butter and paired with whole grain sides or greens. While it provides key nutrients such as vitamin C from the lemons and healthy fats from olive oil, the dish’s sodium content may be on the higher side due to the capers. Ideal for a quick and elegant meal, this recipe showcases the balance of bright acidity and rich textures in Italian cuisine.
