LEMON CHICKEN SCALOPPINE LIKE T.G.I. FRIDAY'S



Lemon Chicken Scaloppine Like T.g.i. Friday's image

Creamy lemon and white wine sauce over sautéed chicken, mushrooms, and artichokes served atop a bed of angel hair pasta, and then sprinkled with pancetta and capers. This was my favorite thing to order when we go to Fridays. It is no longer on the menu but now I can make it at home! I got this from Robbie's Recipes. Not exactly low in calories but definitely worth it every now and then.
