Ingredients
2 skinless and boneless chicken breasts, butterflied and then cut in half
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for dredging
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup brined capers, rinsed
1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.
In a large skillet over medium high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with 3 tablespoons olive oil. When butter and oil start to sizzle, add 2 pieces of chicken and cook for 3 minutes. When chicken is browned, flip and cook other side for 3 minutes. Remove and transfer to plate. Melt 2 more tablespoons butter and add another 2 tablespoons olive oil. When butter and oil start to sizzle, add the other 2 pieces of chicken and brown both sides in same manner. Remove pan from heat and add chicken to the plate.
Into the pan add the lemon juice, stock and capers. Return to stove and bring to boil, scraping up brown bits from the pan for extra flavor. Check for seasoning. Return all the chicken to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove chicken to platter. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to sauce and whisk vigorously.

It's crazy to see how great Food Network used to be. Cooks cooking good food in regular kitchens!
-
I miss when the Food Network actually had cooking shows.
-
It’s almost...refreshing to know that the older days when she cooked she was so calm and didn’t over exaggerate her Italian accent and roots. She just cooked good food and kept it simple.
-
I miss these food network shows. All it is , is game shows...
-
Oh my god! I LOVE THIS!!! Who the hell told her she had to smile all the time?! This is so authentic and lovely! ❤️
-
I love how calm and simple the production is.
-
Best video I have ever seen Giada make. Professional quick . Dressed like a chef. Focus on the food and the task 😊...No fake smiles ... Just real unique beauty being herself doing what she loves to do...Great Job can't wait to make this !!!
-
This is Giada in her elementary stage. It's wonderful. She is not yet a "star" and is simply cooking nicely - not in the madness of IRON CHEF.... Great to see. :)
-
This is the first time EVER I've seen her be real and NOT waaaay "overdoing it" by smiling like a cheshire cat. Wow. I could watch her if she always had this demeanor.
-
Wow this is old school Giada. This is one of her recipes that I make a whole lot.
-
What I like about this video is that she actually washed her hands, no other YouTube or even cooking shows, show that and it is skool important.
-
Old School. Not over pronouncing Italian words like picatta. Not showing off her overwhitened teeth. Definitely toned down version of her. So much more natural. I like it so much better.
-
Just happened upon this needing a refresher on picatta. Back in the mid 2000s, Giada (and Rachael) taught me how to cook. I was a young mom who never learned growing up. Just loved their shows and how simple they made things; really took away the fear of real cooking. Thanks ladies😊
-
I made this for dinner tonight. I thought it was delicious! I used presliced cutlets and it was so easy to make and the lemon juice and butter with the capers and chicken broth makes a very tasty sauce.
-
I agree cooking channel was educational at one time sadly no so much anymore
-
We make this recipe at least once a month from the Everyday Italian cookbook. It was nice to see the video! Love you Giada!!
-
Back when there was barely any counter space.
-
Wow is this an old episode! Back when Giada didn't smile much lol Notice too she doesn't say "Picatta" with an Italian accent!
-
I love to make and eat Italian food. Love the simplicity of the dishes that you demonstrate. Thank you Giada.
-
I like these earlier episodes where the focus is on the food.
