Ingredients
Method
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Place beaten eggs in a shallow dish and flour in another shallow dish.
- Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, letting excess drip off, then dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Let coated chicken rest on a plate for 5 minutes.
- Heat 1/2 cup olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
- Add chicken breasts to the hot oil and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F). Transfer to a plate and tent with foil.
- Carefully drain most of the oil from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let wine simmer for 2-3 minutes to cook off some alcohol.
- Add lemon juice and 3 tablespoons fresh olive oil. Swirl the pan to create an emulsion. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Return chicken to the skillet and spoon sauce over the top. Simmer for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately with the pan sauce.
Notes
For best results, pound chicken to even thickness before cooking. The wine sauce can be made ahead and reheated, but add the lemon juice just before serving to keep it bright. Store leftovers in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
