      I agree! I like Jim's style , which is very different and more kind of "objective" and less "personality-driven than my other half dozen favorites: Not another Cooking Show, Sam the Cooking Guy,Billy Parisi, Chef Jean-Pierre and another I can't remember now. I guess what distinguishes him is his methodical highly organized style,his directness,and above all his easy-going relaxed nature....but it's good that all my favorites have highly distinguishable styles, and all are capable of doing things that the others can't /won't do.

      @@williamcervetti1455 I really enjoy Jim's asides and his comments on the progression and possible substitutions. It's super helpful to know that I don't have to use butter in one spot, I can add the lemons later and I need to be careful not to overdo it if I add them now, the chicken should be this brown at this point, the sauce should be about this thickness at that point, etc. Those are exactly the sorts of things that elevate people from recipe followers to cooks.

      Couldn't agree more - his style & superb communication covers the novice cook like me & assumes nothing - ie here's what u do to make the dish exactly like mine! Also, just does 1 dish at a time + other cooks I no longer watch bc a video >25min will wipe out my data too fast, so I skip their long >1 hr links that do too many dishes. Keep it focused! ❤

    Oh my God, I just got done making your chicken piccata it's the first time it hasn't been too lemony and I love lemon. Just putting thin lemon slices in there makes the difference and the butter dredged in the flour mixture. Thank you for taking the time to teach us how to cook such fabulous dishes. Peace out. God bless thank you❤

  • @bkm2797

    Haven’t had chicken piccata in years, it’s iconic, and I’m so happy you reminded me of this recipe. Like your way of doing it, makes much more sense for the chicken slices to be a quarter inch or so, that way you can actually get some color without overcooking. Also like that you put some of the butter cubes in flour as a way to thicken the sauce. James loves it, so I will give your version a try,lol. Thank you Jim, James and Tara, always great to see you!👍💕

Not lying, it tasted restaurant-like. I was very surprised and happy. I tend to prefer tomato based sauces with pasta so I wasn't sure about this, but it is a keeper! Thank you!

    ATK had a good trick for slicing a chicken breast: instead of cutting the whole thing horizontally, first cut it in half vertically, then cut the thick end in half horizontally. That gives you _three_ pieces of similar thickness and weight. For pounding, I don't have a mallet, but my cast-iron skillet works.

So, I just did a "Deconstructed Cabbage Roll Casserole" with big wedges of cabbage, rice, meat & made a sauce that tasted like my memory.

    Excellent as always, Jim! I'm not sure the taste tester realizes that because the pan sauce is only a few things, it's pretty easy to mess it up. One thing I actually do, which isn't for everyone, but we love the tang, is reserve a touch of the caper brine for the sauce. Again, not for everyone, but we enjoy. Great work as always!

Also, are u using Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt? If u look at the stats on the side & compare, it's 200mg less sodium for a 1/4 tsp, which stretches daily sodium well.
    James cooking is gonna be a hit! Great idea, bc it helps us know how to do it, ie without experience, he'll have some great insights! LOVE ur channel! ❤

    Chicken Piccata is one of my favorite home meals. I do a few things differently -- I cut the breasts into three pieces; the thin pointy end is one piece, then the thick part of the breast is sliced horizontally. Then all pieces are pounded to even thickness.
    After sauté of the chicken pieces, I add flour (and butter if needed) to make a roux before adding garlic and then to deglaze. I like using roux rather than a corn starch slurry.
