GOOD EATS CHICKEN PICCATA
Roughly translated, piccata means "sharp," and refers to an entire class of dishes featuring very thin cutlets cooked in a pan and served with a sharp or piccata sauce.The flavor of this chicken dish is piccata indeed with the acid of the lemon and the bracing brininess of the capers. There's also a rounded umami from the mushrooms. And to be honest, the chicken thighs are way better than the turkey breast I used in my original application - never send breasts to do a job better suited to thighs. This recipe first appeared in Season 2 of Good Eats: Reloaded.

Steps:
- Combine the broth, wine, and lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup and set aside. Season the thighs with 2 teaspoons of the salt and all of the pepper.
- Dump the flour into a gallon-size freezer bag and add one thigh. Push out as much air as possible and seal the bag. Shake to coat then lay the bag (and the thigh) flat on a counter or cutting board and pound (as gently as you can) with a meat pounder. When the thigh is about 1/4-inch thick, remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining pieces.
- Place a heavy 11-inch, straight-sided sauté pan with a tight-fitting lidA good braise requires a good seal. over high heat for 1 minute. Add 1 tablespoon each of the butter and oil to the pan and when the butter just stops bubbling, carefully slide two thighs into the fat. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook, giving the pan a gentle shake every now and then, until bolden brown - 2 to 4 minutes. Flip the thighs and repeat.
- Remove the chicken from the pan to a large plate or platter, add another tablespoon each of butter and oil, and cook another two thighs as before. Then follow with the final two thighsAvoid the urge to overcrowd the pan, or the thighs will stew rather than brown..
- When the last pieces of chicken exit the pan, immediately add the mushrooms and the remaining teaspoon of salt. Sauté until the mushrooms start to turn golden brown - 5 minutes, give or take.
- Stir the mushrooms out to the circumference of the pan and add the capers right to the middle, stirring until they start to brown and pop - 1 minute. Deglaze with a third of the wine-broth mixture, stirring to dissolve any browned goodness stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Return the chicken to the pan, overlapping the pieces as needed, and pour in the remaining wine-broth mixture. Arrange the lemon slices atop the chicken, slap on the lid, reduce the heat to low and cook until the chicken is fork-tender - 5 minutes.
- Evacuate the thighs and arrange on the plater. Boost the heat back to high, add the final tablespoon of butter to the sauce, and stir constantly until the sauce begins to thicken - 1 to 2 minutes. Pour over the chicken, garnish with new lemon slices if desired, top with the parsley and serve.
TURKEY PICCATA
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
- Cut the turkey breast crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Place pieces of turkey, 1 at a time, between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Squirt the meat lightly with water and squirt the top of the plastic wrap as well. Pound to no less than 1/8 inch thickness.
- Season both sides of meat with salt and pepper and then dredge in flour. Shake off the excess flour. Set aside.
- In a large saute pan over medium to medium high heat, heat olive oil and 4 tablespoons butter. Once hot, but not yet smoking, brown turkey scaloppine quickly, about 1 minute on each side, and remove to an ovenproof platter. Place in oven to keep warm.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the shallots to the pan. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes or until they begin to turn translucent. Add wine and lemon juice to the pan and simmer until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, if necessary. Pour sauce over turkey, sprinkle with parsley, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Cook the new potatoes in a large pan of boiling salted water for 8-10 mins until tender. Add the green beans and spring greens for the last 3 mins. Drain, then separate the greens from the potatoes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, cut the chicken breasts through the centre lengthways, leaving one side attached so it opens out like a book. Brush each one with 1 tsp of the olive oil, then season.
- Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 4 mins on each side until golden. Pour over the stock, capers, lemon juice and zest, then simmer gently for a few minutes to reduce. Add the cooked potatoes and simmer for another minute.
- Heat the remaining 1 tsp oil in another frying pan and fry the garlic for 1 min until lightly golden and fragrant. Tip in the drained greens, and toss in the garlicky oil. Season, then scatter over the parmesan and serve with the chicken and potatoes.
