Early this summer, while visiting wineries in Western Pennsylvania, we met Dr. McCarthy at Christian W. Klay winery. Dr. McCarthy of Dr. McCarthy’s Kitchen kindly sent us the recipe below for Chicken Picatta which calls for 1/2 cup of white wine. Dr. McCarthy is the sister of the winery owner and moved from New York to live near family in Pennsylvania. She described her journey to owning a restaurant which included renovating a historic barn for the site of the restaurant. We learned from Dr. McCarthy that her restaurant menu focuses on eating delicious, healthy foods. Find out more about Dr. McCarthy’s Kitchen on Facebook.
