How To Make It

Chef’s Tips

To butterfly a chicken breast, place your hand on top of a boneless, skinless chicken breast. Slice horizontally into the breast, dividing it in half, cutting until about a half-inch from the opposite side. When you’re done, you should be able to open the chicken breast like a book. To make the chicken piccata Whole30 compliant, sub out the pasta for zoodles (zucchini noodles) and the butter for ghee. For the Paleo diet, use ghee instead of butter and zoodles, shirataki noodles, or heart of palm noodles. Use gluten-free spaghetti if you are on a gluten-free diet. Spaghetti squash, cauliflower rice, and mashed potatoes are other great grain-free options instead of pasta.
