Preparation

Step 1

1. Flatten chicken to 1/2 in thickness. In a shallow bowl, combine the eggs, cheese and seasonings. Place flour in another shallow bowl. Coat chicken with flour, then dip in egg mixture.

2. In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil in batches. Transfer to a greased 15 in x 10 in x 1in baking pan. Bake, uncovered at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees.

3. In the drippings, saute shallot until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add the wine, lemon juice, herbs and lemon peel; cook over medium heat until liquid is reduced by half. Add cream; cook until thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in butter until melted. Serve sauce with chicken.
