ChickenPiccata

Serves 4

What to Pair With

This recipe works with a number of wines, particularly ones with higher acidity and a citrusy profile. Pinot grigio, Albariño and Falanghina all come to mind as great choices. Come by and try our featured Wine Club wine this week, a Giacomo Fenocchio Roero Arneis to enjoy with this recipe. This full-bodied Arneis has notes of tropical fruits and has a spicy, mineral finish.

Here’s a quick recipe with a lemony zing! Serve with roasted vegetables and buttery pasta on the side. Enjoy!

Ingredients

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved lengthwise and pounded thin
Salt
Pepper
1/2 cup flour

1/4 cup parsley, chopped

Preparation
