How do you keep this lemon chicken piccata Whole30?
Fair question – we’ve cleaned up this chicken recipe in a few ways, but honestly you’re not going to notice or really care. First, we use arrowroot starch (or tapioca flour will work too) to lightly coat the chicken rather than a wheat flour. Second, we use white wine vinegar and bone broth instead of white wine for making the sauce. And lastly, we serve it over zoodles or cauli rice rather than pasta. Boom! Whole30 compliant lemon chicken piccata served up for you!
Lemony, fresh and refreshing
We like a little zesty flavor from fresh lemon juice, but this chicken can get pretty lemony real quick! We recommend using the juice of one lemon in the sauce, and then serving with some lemon wedges, so you can add more lemony flavor if you’d like. The combination of the lemon juice with the fresh parsley makes this chicken dish taste extra fresh and refreshing!
