Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 large eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
1 medium lemon, juiced, or to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
¾ cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Pound chicken breasts thin using a meat mallet.
  • Combine beaten eggs and Parmesan cheese in a bowl; mix until uniform. Place flour on a wide, shallow plate.
  • Soak 1 piece of chicken in the egg and cheese mixture, then place in flour to coat both sides. Place back in the egg mixture again, and coat with flour for a second time; transfer to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining chicken.
  • Pour olive oil into the bottom of a large frying pan and heat over medium heat until warm. Add chicken, in batches as needed, and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, no longer pink in the center, and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes. Place the cutlets in the preheated oven and use the same pan to prepare the sauce.
  • Pour white wine into the pan; bring to a boil while scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Allow to reduce until you no longer smell the alcohol, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chicken broth and increase heat to high; allow the volume to boil down to about half. Add lemon juice. Transfer chicken into the sauce let sit, 3 to 5 minutes, turning once.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs, beaten
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup white wine
2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup butter
2 lemons, juiced
1 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Coat chicken with flour, then egg beat, then saute in a large skillet until almost cooked through. Drain on paper toweling.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).

  • Bake at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking and burning.
  • Dredge the chicken in flour before cooking. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Do not overcrowd the skillet. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite sides.
