Restaurant quality, has a delicate lemon flavor and is delicious.
If you like a lot of sauce, double the sauce ingredients

Ingredients
  • 8 (4 oz.) boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • olive oil for frying

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 Tbls. dry white wine (a buttery chardonnay works well)

  • 2 Tbls. fresh lemon juice

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/8 t. hot pepper sauce

  • ½ c. unbleached all-purpose white flour

  • ½ c. grated Parmesan cheese

  • ¼ c. minced fresh parsley (or 4 t. dried)

  • ½ t. salt

Lemon Sauce
  • ¼ c. dry white wine (buttery chardonnay)

  • 3 Tbls. fresh lemon juice

  • 2 Tbls. butter

Instructions

Flatten chicken to ¼-inch thickness.

In a small bowl, with a wire whisk or electric beater, mix the eggs, 2 tablespoons wine, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, garlic and hot pepper sauce. Pour into a shallow dish.

In another shallow dish, combine the flour, Parmesan cheese, parsley and salt.

Coat chicken with flour mixture, dip in egg mixture, then coat again in flour mixture.

In a large nonstick skillet, brown four chicken breast halves in a little oil for 3-5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Remove and keep warm. Repeat with remaining chicken, adding a little more oil if needed. Remove and keep warm.

Sauce: In the same pan, melt butter. Add ¼ cup wine and 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Boil, uncovered until sauce is reduced by a fourth. Drizzle over chicken.

NOTE:

Good served with Basmati rice cooked in chicken broth and my Roasted Broccoli with Garlic & Almonds recipe
