Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, dip into beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and place in the oven to keep warm.

  3. 3

    Sauté Bacon and Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the remaining bacon slices and cook until crispy. Add the chopped mushrooms and minced garlic, sauté until mushrooms are tender.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Pour in the white wine and lemon juice. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes until slightly reduced. Stir in the remaining butter until melted and the sauce is creamy.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon the sauce over the chicken, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
