Lemon Chicken Piccata with Capers #diet #lemon #chicken #lowcarb#appetizers

This chicken piccata was motivated by both the conventional Italian piccata dishes just as my container singed and cooked chicken with tricks, the fundamental distinction being that this chicken piccata is a snappy one skillet burner supper with a rich sauce. 

There are a great deal of side dishes that you can present with chicken piccata. I would suggest solid low carb alternatives, for example, my squashed cauliflower with cheddar and bacon, gooey prepared asparagus, or garlic green beans. In case you're searching for something lighter, you can set up some spiralized zucchini or a straightforward Caesar plate of mixed greens. 

Most of the sugars in this dish are in the tricks (and less significantly, the lemon juice). You can without much of a stretch split the measure of tricks to fundamentally decrease the quantity of net carbs per serving. I'm a major fanatic of tricks so I think the included sum is great, yet it will likewise function admirably with less. 

I utilize whitened almond flour, yet you can without much of a stretch substitute with different kinds of flour. Simply focus on the cooking times, as you may need to utilize sequential cooking temperatures to accomplish sautéed and delicate chicken.

INGREDIENTS
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup blanched almond flour
  • 1/4 cup capers drained

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Slice the chicken breasts in half along the length to make them thinner. Pat dry with a paper towel. Season both sides of each chicken breast with salt and pepper.

  5. Reduce to low heat. Add heavy cream, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and capers. Stir everything together, scraping up any bits that have stuck to the pan.
  6. Increase heat to bring to a simmer. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until melted.
