Creamy Rosemary Chicken Piccata
Inroduction
About this Recipe
By: Caitlin Greene
If you want an alternative to a piccata without wine or broth, this lemon chicken dish is exactly what you are looking for! This is a whole-30 meal that takes approximately 25 minutes to make.
I decided to create a flavorful piccata with just water, herbs, and spices. The addition of fresh rosemary elevates the flavors to a whole new level! You can use chicken breast – just pound them thinly. Using a different flour or tapioca starch instead of arrowroot will do! Serve with rice, noodles, veggies, or veggie noodles.
What You’ll Need For This Recipe:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs
Salt and pepper to season chicken
¼ cup and 2 tablespoons arrowroot starch
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 ½ tablespoon ghee
1 ½ cups water
¼ cup light canned coconut milk
3 tablespoons lemon juice
¼ cup coconut amino
2 garlic cloves, minced
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons capers
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
