Step 1

CRISPY PARMESAN CHICKEN:

Step 2

Cut each breast into 3 pieces. Then place between 2 pieces of cling wrap or paper and pound to 1/2 cm / 0.2″ thickness.

Step 3

Drizzle chicken with 1/2 tbsp olive oil and spread with your fingers on both sides.

Step 4

Mix flour, parmesan, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Coat chicken, pressing to adhere, then shaking off excess.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Then add butter and let it melt.

Step 6

Place 3 pieces of chicken in the skillet. Cook 3 – 4 minutes until golden, then turn and cook the other side for 1 minute. Remove onto plate, repeat with remaining chicken.

Step 7

CHICKEN PICCATA SAUCE:

Step 8

Pour out and discard excess fat in skillet, then give it a quick wipe with paper towels (no need to clean thoroughly).

Add lemon and simmer 1 minute.

Step 11

Reduce heat to low. Add cubed butter and swirl pan to make it melt but not go foamy. Sauce should be glossy, translucent and slightly thickened.
