Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Chicken

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

2

Dredge in Flour

Coat each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess.

3

Egg Wash

In a bowl, beat the eggs and dip each floured chicken breast into the egg mixture.

4

Cook the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.

5

Make the Sauce

In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, then add white wine, lemon juice, and chicken broth. Simmer for about 5 minutes.

6

Combine

Return the chicken to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, spooning sauce over the chicken.

7

Serve

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with the sauce.
