  1. Break down and season the chicken

    Paso 1
  2. Prep the vegetables

    • Remove the strings from the sugar snap peas and cut them on a bias.
    • Cut the baby squash into even wedges so they cook evenly.

  3. Boil and smash the potatoes

    • Boil the baby Dutch potatoes in salted water until tender, then drain.
    • Smash them, coat with olive oil and spread on a tray.
    Paso 3
  4. Roast the potatoes

    Paso 7
  8. Mince the aromatics and slice the parsley

    • Finely mince the shallots.
    • Pick the parsley leaves and slice them thinly with a sharp knife in one clean run so they don't bruise.
    Paso 8
  9. Start the piccata sauce

    • In the same pan used for the chicken, sweat the shallots in the chicken fat, scraping up the fond.
    • Add the grated garlic and toast briefly without letting it burn.
    Paso 9

    Paso 11
  12. Emulsify the butter

    • Over moderate heat, whisk in the cold butter a little at a time until fully emulsified.
    • Keep the pan from getting too hot so the sauce doesn't break.
    Paso 12
  13. Finish the sauce

    • Stir in the sliced parsley and fresh lemon juice.
    • Taste and adjust the salt.
    Paso 13
  14. Slice the chicken and plate
