The Chicken Pickata ( Piccata )makes do with more stuff that’s just in the fridge, including the capers that usually run standard, but no, swap it out for pickles (fermented, ideally) and then have some culinary profit on your @RazorGriddle
Here’s the Recipe:
For the Chicken
2 Chicken Breast
100g Flour
75g Cup Potato Starch (or Corn Starch
1 Tsp Bay Powder
1 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Ground Black Pepper
Zest of 1 Lemon
Butter for frying
For the Sauce
1 Small Onion
1-2 Cloves of Garlic
200ml of Chicken Stock
2 medium pickles, or a few cornichons
4 Lemon slices
2 Sprigs of Thyme
A few pinches of dried chilli
100g Butter
Hammer the Chicken Breasts to about 1-2cm thick. Mix the flour and potato starch, bay, salt, pepper and lemon zest. Dredge the chicken in the flour. Turn the griddle up to a medium-high heat.
Rub a generous amount of butter on the griddle, and immediately lay down a chicken portion. Repeat for the other. Cook until tanned and brown, then flip, then rub more butter on the griddle, and flip the chicken onto the butter. When done, move to the side. Add the rest of the butter to the middle of the griddle, then add the garlic, onion, pickles, the thyme and chilli. Put the lemon on top, and let it sizzle. When the lemon softens, pour over the chicken stock, and reduce. Move the chicken into the sauce – the flour from the chicken will thicken the sauce slightly.
Remove the chicken, put the sauce down the grease trap into a clean grease cup and serve the chicken with a slice or two of lemon on top, the onion/garlic and pickles, and a few spoons of sauce on top, all over potatoes of your choice! Enjoy!

I made a grilled pikarta, as in pearta with pickles, not capers, because we buy capers for these recipes and they just sit in the fridge and people just never know what to do with them afterwards. So, don’t buy the capers, buy the pickles. They’re much more versatile. I hammered and dredged the chicken in a seasoned flour and prepped some other stuff. Anyway, what I’m doing today is making this picata on my eye raisor because it’s raining outside. Winter is here, folks. But you can do this on your ordinary razor griddle, including the sauce because of the front integrated grease trap. Anyway, this is a butter and lemon and stock and thyme and garlic and onion and yes, even some chili flakes for a kick sort of vibe going on here. Serve it all up with potatoes, not pasta, because chicken and pasta is a bit of a sin and win. Cozy and delicious. The recipe is in the caption. [Music]
