Chicken Piccata with Creamy Porcini Sauce

Recipe for chicken piccata with creamy porcini sauce, thin slices of chicken piccata with porcini, white wine and sundried tomatoes served with pappardelle, delicious!

Today I made a porcini and sundried tomatoes sauce and served my piccata with pappardelle, I love these large noodle ribbons, they’re perfect to accompany meat and gravy.

Piccata refers to small veal or chicken cutlets. I usually cut the cutlets myself: holding a large knife obliquely, I slice about four cutlets out of 1 chicken breast.
