Method
- Start by placing the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to gently pound them to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch.
- In one shallow dish, place the flour seasoned with salt and pepper. In another dish, whisk together the eggs and Parmesan cheese until smooth.
- Coat each chicken breast in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and half of the butter over medium heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits.
- Allow the sauce to simmer for a few minutes until slightly reduced. Stir in the remaining butter until melted.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, turning to coat it in the sauce. Cook for an additional minute to heat through.
- Plate the chicken and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with a side of pasta or vegetables.
Notes
For an even more flavorful sauce, add a splash of white wine when simmering the broth and lemon juice.
