Chicken Piccata

I always asked my parents to make this dish when I was younger. There is just something about the combination of the tartness of the lemon juice and the saltiness of the capers that makes me love this dish. Now that I have found a recipe that makes it lighter without losing ANY of the flavor I feel like I should send a thank you to Emily Bites. She has not only made this dish flavorful and healthy but fairly simple and unintimidating to cook.
