Chicken Piccata is a dish prepared by seasoning thinly pounded chicken tenders, coating them in flour, and dipping them in beaten eggs before pan-frying. The dish gets its name from the Italian word piccata, meaning “a thrust with a lance.” The origin of the name is said to come from the cooking technique itself: the chicken cutlets are so thin that they can be turned with a single poke of a fork during cooking.
