Crack open a bottle of crisp white wine, as this dish screams to be enjoyed with a glass or two. It is also handy that white wine is added to the pan, so it requires the opening of a bottle. Enjoy a glass while standing over the stove, inhaling the zesty aromas? The flavours are light and fresh, and the chicken is sooooooo tender. Another one pot wonder, and it only takes 10-15 minutes to make. A classic Sicilian dish, with my addition of leek, which I think bulks up the dish and adds a nice flavour.
two large organic chicken breasts
one leek
two garlic cloves
1/4 cup capers
1/4 cup olive oil
one cup dry white wine
one lemon sliced
salt and cracked black pepper
How to make:
1: Slice the chicken breasts into half length ways (or three slices depending on the desired thickness)
2: Heat the oil, sliced leek, garlic, and a little salt in a heavy based pan for about 5 minutes or until tender
3: Place the chicken pieces evenly on top of the leek mixture and add white wine, this should almost cover the chicken. Add capers
4: Once the chicken is cooked on one side, turn over and allow to cook through. Top with lemon slices and allow the heat to cook. The chicken should only take five or so minutes each side, depending on the thickness.
5: Squeeze a little fresh lemon on top and serve immediately
