Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Place chicken breasts side by side on a cutting board and cover with a piece of plastic wrap.
  2. Pound the chicken breasts with a meat mallet until they are about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Place some all purpose flour in a large Zip Loc bag and season with a fair amount of salt and pepper.
  4. Shake bag to mix flour and seasonings.
  5. In a wide bowl beat the eggs with 3 tablespoons of water to make egg wash.
  6. Pour oil in a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat until oil is hot about 5-6 minutes.
  7. Place chicken breasts in Zip Loc bag containing seasoned flour mixture and shake to coat completely.
  8. Dredge chicken in egg wash.
  9. Once oil is hot add chicken and fry for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown, turning once.

  11. Toss the lemon slices into the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  12. Add the wine, chicken broth and lemon juice and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the sauce slightly.
  13. Roll the butter in some flour and add to the skillet- this will thicken the sauce.

  16. Place the lemon slices on top of the chicken.
  17. Simmer gently for 2 minutes to heat the chicken through.
