What is the difference between chicken piccata and chicken Francese?
The main difference between them is for francese, the chicken breast is first dipped in flour, then into a beaten egg mixture, only then cooked. For piccata, the chicken is first dipped in egg and then in flour. Both are then simmered in a lemony butter sauce, but the piccata sauce may include capers.What is a good white wine for cooking Chicken Francaise?
Crisp White Wine (Such as Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc & Unoaked Chardonnay). This is what you should look for. If possible, choose a wine that has an alcohol content of 10-13%.
