About Piccata milanese

Piccata Milanese is a traditional Italian dish that combines simplicity and flavor. Originating from Milan, it typically features thin slices of veal or chicken, lightly breaded and pan-fried to golden perfection. The dish is distinguished by a tangy sauce made with fresh lemon juice, white wine, and capers, often enriched with butter. While traditionally served with pasta or a side of sautéed vegetables, Piccata Milanese balances protein content with vibrant citrus flavors and a touch of saltiness from the capers. From a nutritional standpoint, it provides a good source of lean protein, especially when made with chicken. However, the butter and breading can increase fat and calorie content, making moderation key. Pairing it with steamed vegetables or a whole grain side can enhance its health benefits and round out the meal. This dish exemplifies the rich flavors and culinary traditions of Northern Italy.
