Lemon/Tomato/Caper Sauce


Lemon/tomato Caper Sauce for Chicken or Fish -   Recipe created by Sandy Bishop


Also good with Tilapia (I like to bread it with ground almonds)

I bread the chicken then make the sauce -  set aside to make the rest of dinner.
Breaded Chicken Breasts:

Chicken Breast
egg or buttermilk
flour
Panko Bread crumbs
parmesan cheese (I just use the canned)
butter/oil for cooking

Cut Chicken breast in half - (to make it thinner)
Dip in flour, then egg or buttermilk, then in bread crumb mixture - set aside to set - (breading will stay on better).  Cook in butter/oil 3 minutes or so on each side - 


Lemon/tomato Caper Sauce 

1 lemon - juiced
1/4 cup capers rinsed and drained
1/2 cup white grape juice (some say wine - I use juice)
3 tomatoes chopped
Salt (to taste)
Pepper  (to taste)
Cream - 1/2 cup?  
Flour 2-3 tablespoons
Parsley (optional)

In sauce pan - lemon juice, tomatoes, capers, white grape juice, salt, pepper.  Cook until tomatoes are soft, about 4 minutes?   Mix flour with part of the cream.  Stir into sauce until thickened.  Add cream to make it a nice consistency.  Cook two more minutes.  Cover and set aside until ready to eat.  

Good with pasta (orzo, angel hair, linguini)
