I’m back again today with my friends from Land O Lakes® and Sauté Express® Sauté Starter for another quick and easy #weekdaysupper.
Coming up for a dish to make with my Sauté Express® was so easy, in fact I was originally going to do this for my #SundaySupper post but the fact of the matter is, we are cooking during the week here, we want simple, no fuss, done in 20 minutes type of dinner.
This friends is your dinner tonight. I’ve made a million variations on chicken piccata, in fact it is one of husbands favorite meals that I make for him, and one of the few that he ever requests – and I quote “you know what you haven’t made in a while…” The answer is always, chicken piccata.
I think it’s because he loves the capers or maybe it’s because it is one of the first batch of meals I made for him. Whatever the reason, this is a meal that will make anyone happy.
Ingredients
- 1lb thin cut chicken cutlets
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- salt and pepper
- 2 oz (2 squares) Savory Butter & Olive Oil Sauté Express® Sauté Starter, divided
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- juice of 2 lemons
- 1 tablespoon capers
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, season the flour with a little bit of salt and pepper.
- Dry the chicken cutlets with papers towels and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge the cutlets in the flour, shaking off any excess.
- In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt 1 square of the Savory Butter & Olive Oil Sauté Express® Sauté Starter. Cook the chicken, until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side and transfer to a plate tented with foil to keep warm.
- Continue with remaining chicken cutlets, and adding the extra square of Sauté Express® to the pan as you cook.
- Once all the chicken is cooked through, immediately pour the chicken broth into the skillet and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the lemon juice and capers and bring to a boil.
- Place the chicken back into the pan and heat through, about a minute more.
- Serve with the sauce drizzled on top.

Chicken piccata was one of the first things I thought of when I saw the saute express. I can’t wait to try it soon. Yum!
Chicken Piccata is definitely my favorite Italian meal 🙂 The lemon is so bright and gives a great, light flavor to the chicken.
Chicken Piccata is one of my go-to desperation meals…and using Saute Express even shortens the prep time more! Yours looks DELISH!
