Amazon Meal Kits, Chicken Piccata with Gemelli & Caper Butter Sauce, Serves 2

Amazon Meal Kits, Chicken Piccata with Gemelli & Caper Butter Sauce, Serves 2

We really enjoyed this one. One of our new faves. As always, the serving sizes are generous. This one does take longer to prepare than others. The sauce was very tasty and drizzling the fresh lemon juice on it stepped it up another notch. The chicken pieces were not equally thick so it’s important to put the larger, thicker pieces in the center of the land so they all cook through. Another thing to watch for is not to over cook the zucchini...easy to do. The capers add enough seasoning so adding salt isn’t necessary. We will definitely get this one again!

This meal was delicious but there were quite a few steps and having to pan fry the chicken made it a bit messy requiring a little extra clean up.

This was my first time trying any kind of meal kit by any company and I have to say I’m impressed. I’ll be trying the other meal kits for the sake of variety alone but I’m definitely coming back to this one at some point. The ingredients were very high quality and impressive (it included kerry gold butter!) The portion size was also fantastic — plenty for both my wife and I. Overall, worth the price.

Very tasty (who doesn’t like lemon and butter and capers) but they made the recipe a bit more complicated than it needed to be. Some steps could be combined or done in same pan. Also the protein portion was quite small. It was actually one chicken breast that had been sliced lengthwise into three thin portions. Traditional piccata doesn’t have the pasta but guessing that added that to help fill you up.

Wonderful recipe, zesty flavor, perfect tenderness all around. Great portion for two. Definitely making this again.

Panko-crusted, piccata-spiced chicken breasts over spiral pasta with a lemon, caper, and dill butter sauce



Words can't describe how easy and good this meal is! I LOVE.

Great flavor, great portions. Very happy.

Simple to make & delicious! Love that prep work was even done- veggies already chopped. Would buy again

This was delicious - I wish the kits came with a checklist for the amounts of each ingredient included in the box.

Amazon seems to have a whole new set of meal kits this week. We picked this one up at the Amazon Go store. It was good but is definitely one of the more complicated recipes and took an hour to cook and three pans.

Unlike some previous chicken dishes, this one came with naked chicken breast without skin or a leg attached which was vastly preferable. It looked like one solid piece but was actually cut into four thinner layers. Overall it had a great combination of flavors and we all liked it (two adults and an 8 year old)...we all had plenty to eat.

This one has a lot of steps like I mentioned and there were a few odd things in the recipe. For example, it said to boil the pasta for 10 minutes with the lid ON. That lasted about 20 seconds before the pan tried to boil over. A tablespoon of salt seems like a lot to add to boiling pasta. We cooked the zucchini for four minutes instead of 2. And the instructions to cut the lemon width wise was briefly confusing since how else would you cut a lemon? Breading chicken is definitely kinda messy and takes more dishes.

But it was delicious so it was with the extra time, effort and dishes.

Edit: we ordered this again and it was definitely easier to prepare the second time. And it was just as delicious.
