Chicken Piccata and Roasted Broccoli with Pine Nuts

Ingredients for chicken:

• 2 chicken breast halves

• 1/2 cup brown rice flour (plus 1 teaspoon extra for sauce)

• 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper

• 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon garlic-infused olive oil (regular olive oil will also work)

• 1/3 cup dry white wine

• 1/2 cup low FODMAP chicken broth (Trader Joe's Savory Chicken Broth Concentrate, Progresso All Natural Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth or a homemade stock without garlic and onion will work)

• 1/3 cup lemon juice (about 1 lemon)

• zest from half a lemon

• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes

• 2 tablespoons capers (dried in vinegar)

Directions:

1. Place a chicken breast in a half-gallon zip-close bag and put on a cutting board. Using a meat mallet, pound chicken until it is about 1/2-inch thick. Set aside and repeat with the other piece of chicken.

2. In a shallow dish, mix brown rice flour, salt and pepper. Dip chicken in the dish so that both pieces are coated on each side.

3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Swirl to coat the pan evenly.

4. Add chicken to the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through and juices run clear.

5. Transfer chicken to a plate and cover with wax paper to keep warm.

6. Add white wine to the pan, turning up the heat to high for 1 to 2 minutes to deglaze the pan and reduce the wine. As the wine is reducing, use a spatula to scrape up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan (retain these in the pan).

7. Once the wine has reduced by half, decrease the heat to medium-low and add chicken broth, lemon juice, lemon zest, parsley, capers, 1 teaspoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon brown rice flour. Whisk the ingredients in the pan together until there are no clumps.

8. Add chicken back to the pan and cover well with the sauce. Put the cover back on the pan and let simmer over medium-low heat for another 2 to 3 minutes.
