It’s Monday. Work had a few too many lulls for my liking, so I had plenty of time to think about dinner. I wanted something light and delicious, so decided on chicken piccata… always a good choice!

This meal combines everything that I love. Broccoli, mashed potatoes, lemon, capers and artichokes… especially the artichokes.

It’s an easy enough meal to make. Just needs a little preparation.

For the piccata for two:

  • 1 chicken breast halved
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • juice of one lemon
  • 1 can quartered artichokes
  • 2 tsp capers

1. Dust the chicken with flour until evenly coated.  2. Cook the chicken in the olive oil until done. 3. Once the chicken is cooked, add in the stock, wine, lemon juice, capers and artichokes. 4. Let simmer for 15 minutes. 5. Enjoy!!!
