Chicken Piccata

This Cuisine at Home recipe was posted on our message boards by member sheshebop. "Four chicken cutlets is too many for [darling husband] and I, but this recipe actually only makes enough sauce for two. I would recommend you make the recipe as is and only use two cutlets, or double other ingredients if you are using 4 cutlets," says sheshebop.
