Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pasta

    Cook the linguini pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Batter the Chicken

    In a shallow dish, beat the eggs. In another dish, place the flour. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Chicken

    In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

  5. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits. Let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes.

  6. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it with the sauce. Serve over the cooked linguini and garnish with chopped parsley.
