Chicken Piccata
Do you have 15 minutes? Okay, awesome, then you have enough time to make this chicken piccata. Chicken piccata is typically a pretty healthy meal, but, beware, most of the time restaurants dredge it in flour before cooking it. The sticky thing about that is that you usually can’t tell that they’re doing that, because it comes out looking like a normal piece of grilled chicken. If you’re ever worried about it, just ask your server, or just stay in and make this version yourself.
