(no subject)

So it appears that I may be dropping/missing/losing some (but not all) comment notifications! And this may have been going on for a while without my noticing!

So if it looks like you asked me something and I didn't ever reply, or I dropped a conversation mid-stride, uh, that may be why. Sorry.

No poll this time

For dinner I'm making my chicken piccata (where I take a 'standard' chicken piccata recipe [lightly breaded and fried chicken breasts in a lemon-caper-butter sauce] and multiply the lemons by 3, because I love a sharp, fresh lemon flavor), with a side of spaghetti in lemon butter sauce.

What would you serve with this as a side dish?

I have fresh carrots, celery, cherry tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, apples, a mix of greens, broccoli raab, onions, potatoes, delicata squash, butternut squash, potatoes, onions, rhubarb, shallots, sunchokes, mushrooms, and pears. Plus garlic, several kinds of herbs, lemons, and limes. Oh, and frozen peas, frozen spinach, frozen corn, canned tomatoes, canned green chiles, and canned chipotles in adobo.

Ideas for a vegetable side that would go well with salty-sharp-bright chicken piccata? (Preferably not a starchy one, since the spaghetti is filling that niche.)
