1
Prepare the Chicken
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. This ensures even cooking.
2
Make the Batter
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, flour, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

3
Coat the Chicken
Dip each piece of chicken into the egg batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
4
Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the coated chicken and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
5
Make the Sauce
In the same skillet, pour in the white wine and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.
6
Finish the Sauce
Reduce the heat to low, adding the remaining butter and chopped parsley. Stir until the butter is melted and the sauce is well combined.

7
Serve the Dish
Place the cooked chicken on plates and spoon the sauce over the top. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
