In a large skillet over medium high heat, cook chicken and onion in butter on 1 side until golden brown. Turn chicken to brown on other side and sprinkle with lemon juice. Remove chicken. Whisk flour into pan juices; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly until smooth and thickened. Stir in seasonings and half of the cheese.
