Ingredients
Instructions
Gently coat chicken breasts with salt and pepper, ensuring even seasoning.
Dredge each piece thoroughly in flour, tapping to remove excess coating.
Whisk eggs and Parmesan cheese together in a shallow dish until well combined.
Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat (around 350°F) until shimmering.
Dunk floured chicken into egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then carefully place in hot skillet.
Cook chicken 3-4 minutes per side until exterior turns golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Transfer cooked chicken to a plate and keep warm.
In the same skillet, melt butter and quickly deglaze with chicken broth, white wine, and fresh lemon juice.
Simmer sauce for 4-5 minutes, allowing liquid to reduce and flavors to concentrate.
Gently return chicken to skillet, coating each piece with the tangy sauce.
Let chicken absorb sauce flavors for 2-3 minutes.
Plate chicken and generously drizzle remaining sauce over the top.
Garnish with bright lemon slices and freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant finish.
