Crispy lemon Chicken Piccata

INGREDIENTS:

Fried chicken:
chicken leg quarter/thigh fillet
lemon pepper seasoning
Plain flour
(wet batter) flour/egg/seasoning/water mix
Seasoned flour

*for the spices I just used italian seasoning or you can use garlic powder/paprika/onion powder

Sauce:
4 tbsp Olive Oil
1 onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, sliced
1 jar Capers in vinegar, drained
1 tbsp flour
1/2 cup white wine
1 cup Reduced beef/chicken stock
parsley, chopped
Butter, cubed
Lemon Juice & Zest

Garlic rice


INSTRUCTIONS:
make lemon sauce by sautéing onions, garlic and capers in olive oil. Sweat until translucent and add in flour. toast for 1-2 mins.
Deglaze pan with white wine and add in your chicken/beef stock and lemon juic/zest. Whisk until mixture thickens.
Turn off the heat and whisk in your cold butter cubes and parsley so that it emulsifies into the sauce. Set aside.
Season your chicken fillets with lemon pepper on each side. coat in plain flour, wet batter and back into the seasoned flour. Deep fry at 165 for 10-15 mins until crispy.
Serve chicken on top of garlic rice, pour over sauce, add crispy capers, top with more parsley and enjoy!
