Ingredients

Directions

Preparation


1. Slice chicken breast in half lengthwise. Flatten each piece of chicken to 1/4-inch thickness.
2. In a shallow dish, combine eggs, 2 tablespoons wine, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, garlic, and hot pepper sauce.
3. In separate shallow dish, combine the flour, Parmesan cheese, parsley, and salt. Coat chicken with flour mixture, dip in egg mixture, then coat again with flour mixture.
4. In a large nonstick skillet, brown the chicken in 1 tablespoon oil for 5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Remove and keep warm in 350 degree oven while making the sauce.
5. In the same pan, melt butter. Add the remaining wine and lemon juice. Bring to a rolling boil, uncovered, until sauce is reduced by a fourth.
6. Remove chicken from oven and drizzle sauce over chicken to serve. May serve over angel hair pasta, if desired.
