I'm confused.
The only chicken piccata I've had consisted of tomatoes, artichokes, and capers.(which I absolutely loved, btw)
So what exactly constitutes chicken "piccata"?

Maybe you're thinking of Chicken Cacciatore?
Chicken Piccata is always with lemon, usually white wine and usually capers.
You could add some capers to this recipe and it would make it even better.
Jypsi...you could use boneless thighs. It would be higher in calories because of the dark meat but not much. That would be fun to try.

I might have to, my family doesn't care too much for white meat. We always get boneless, skinless thighs.

I've always LOVED Veal Picatta, it is usually made with TONS of butter, white wine and capers! Yum. People always make recipes the way they like so I don't doubt that pinkcaddy has had it with tomatoes and artichoke. I believe the butter, white wine and capers is what constitutes Piccata. Hmm, I'll look it up!

Here is a link to a recipe. I LOVE how they down play the butter! OMG, if you've ever made real Piccata you know it takes a ton of butter!  UYC's recipe is WAY better for you and will still pack the great flavors! Looks awesome!!!!!!!

Hmmmm...I don't know what the side dish is. It looks like a brown/wild rice blend with some asparagus in it.
