What is chicken piccata?
Classic chicken piccata is a recipe that uses chicken breasts that are coated in flour, sautéed and served with a creamy sauce made of butter, lemon juice, and capers. Chicken can be topped with white wine or stock.
What are capers?
Capers are unopened flower buds of a prickly caper plant. They’re bursting with a tangy, salty taste that gives dishes a fresh lemony burst of flavor!

How to make Keto chicken piccata
Ingredients:
- 4 Thinly sliced chicken breast cutlets
- ¼ C. Almond flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 Tbsp. Butter
- 1 Tbsp. Olive oil
- 1 Large shallot thinly sliced
- 2 tsp. Minced garlic
- ¼ C. White cooking wine
- 1 Tbsp. Lemon juice
- ½ C. Bone broth
- ½ C. Heavy whipping cream
- ¼ C. Capers
- 1 Can Palmini linguini noodles drained and rinsed well
Instructions:
First, start by Seasoning the chicken cutlets well on both sides with salt and pepper.
Dredge each chicken cutlet in the almond flour, and set aside.
Now, Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat on the stove.
Add the dredged chicken to the heated skillet, and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side until browned well and completely cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and keep warm.
Add the chopped shallots to the skillet, and cook for a few minutes until they begin to soften.
Place the garlic into the skillet, and saute another 15-30 seconds.
Reduce the heat to medium, and add the white cooking wine. Cook down until the liquid is reduced by half.
Mix in the lemon juice and the bone broth.
Add the heavy whipping cream to the skillet, and whisk well to combine.
Stir in the capers. Continue to cook the sauce down until it thickens.
Add the chicken back to the skillet, and spoon the sauce mixture over the top.
