Personal Notes:
I have been making chicken and wine sauce for many years. Several years ago, when I hosted the Parish Pastoral Council at my home, I hired a caterer and she made Chicken Piccata. I asked her why her sauce was thicker than my wine sauce recipe and she told me it was because she had dredged the chicken in flour. Then the only other thing she did was add lemon slices. I like it because it provides variety. It is a good meal to take to someone's home, and it is pretty quick and easy to prepare.
