A classic Italian-American dish featuring tender chicken breasts in a bright, zesty lemon sauce, perfect for family gatherings or elegant dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 lemon (juiced)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Lemon slices for garnish

Instructions

  1. Pound the chicken breasts until about 1/2 inch thick and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off the excess.
  3. Beat the eggs in a bowl. Dip each floured chicken breast into the egg, ensuring an even coverage.
  4. Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  6. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  7. Add chicken broth and lemon juice to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits.
  8. Return chicken to the skillet and simmer for 5 minutes.
  9. Serve garnished with fresh parsley and lemon slices.

Notes

Pound chicken evenly for consistent cooking. Use fresh lemons for the best flavor.
