Chicken Piccata
We are off again in early March for our NJ visit. We will get there around 4 PM, or cocktail hour as we like to call it. After the long car ride, and this time with a new puppy in tow, I am looking for things that are fairly easy to make as well as great food. Chicken Piccata is one of my mother-in-law,s favorite dinners so I know it will be a hit. I will serve it over some homemade pasta and a side salad of Bibb lettuce, sliced pears, roasted pecans, blue cheese and a drizzle of honey, as Ina Gartner would say, “how bad can that be”.
