Piccata

Chicken piccata

Piccata is an Italian dish of thin pan-fried flour-dredged meat in a sauce of lemon juice, butter, parsley, and often capers.[1][2] In Italian cuisine piccata is prepared using veal (piccata di vitello al limone, lit.'veal piccata with lemon'),[3] whereas in Italian-American cuisine, chicken is more commonly used. A similar dish, pesce spada con capperi e limone, is made with swordfish.[4]
