LOW CARB CHICKEN PICCATA
This is a delicious dish I first tasted at Belisio's in Duluth, MN. It is very easy and healthy! The leftover chicken is wonderful sliced over greens with the sauce drizzled on top like a dressing. You can do the full carb version by substituting wheat flour for the soy flour. I prefer the texture of the soy flour, it browns better.

Steps:
- Butterfly the chicken breasts by cutting their thickness in half. You can also have your butcher do this for you. They just need to be thin so they cook faster.
- Heat the olive oil and 2 Tbsp of the butter in a medium to large pan.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Then dredge in the soy flour and fry in pan.
- Cook the chicken for 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and keep warm by placing in microwave. You may need to cook the chicken in batches depending on the size of your pan.
- After all the chicken has been cooked, deglaze the pan with the chicken broth and lemon juice. Scrape all the bits from the bottom of the pan. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the chicken back into the sauce and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove the chicken to the plate again. Add the remaining 1 Tbsp of butter and the capers to the sauce.
- Place the chicken back in the pan. Ready to eat!
- Very good with any vegetable on the side.

Steps:
- Cook broccoli first in boiling water, drain well and keep warm. The broccoli is used as a bed for the Chicken Piccata instead of noodles or starches.
- Lightly flour chicken breasts.
- Mix together broth, capers, zest and lemon juice in separate bowl. Set aside.
- Melt 1/2 stick butter to saute pan and brown chicken breasts well. Remove from pan.
- Add broth ingredients scraping up browned bit on bottom of pan. Place breasts back into pan and cook on the number 8 heat on an electric stove. You want a higher heat. Cook about 5 min until done. It will not take long to cook because the breasts are thin. Do not overcook or they will dry out. Plate the breasts and keep warm.
- Keep cooking the sauce until about half remains.
- Put cooked broccoli in bottom of large serving bowl, place chicken on top and pour sauce over it all.
