    i made a very similar take off on this tonight using leftover sliced chicken. I made the sauce with chicken broth and flour, added some lemon juice and capers, added more lemon juice when it seemed to need it, plenty of black pepper, dried parslet, and served over spaghetti. Super easy chicken piccata!

      Harriet,
      Not using any milk, was it still a creamy sauce? If not, what sauce would you compare it to?
      Thanks,
      Lynette
