Lemon caper sauce for poultry or fish
===================================== 2024-03-12
Comments: when cooking turkey or chicken slices, dip them in a little flour first.
At the end, when the chicken is returned in the sauce, the flour will help thicken the sauce. Make the sauce in the same pan used to cook the meat or fish. Reserve (covered) the meat or fish while preparing the sauce, then return it to the pan a few minutes before serving. A slight simmer will then thicken the sauce.
Alternatively, if the chicken or fish was not farinated and/or is not returned to the pan, disolve a flat teaspoon of corn starch in the stock (while cold).
