Preparation

Step 1

Dust the chicken in the flour and set aside.
Make the batter by beating eggs briskly, then beating in the lemon
juice, parsley, salt, wine, garlic, hot pepper sauce, and Parmesan.
Coat a heavy skillet with margarine or olive oil and place over high
heat. Dip the floured chicken pieces generously in the batter and
place in the heated skillet. Cook until golden brown on each side,
about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and drain excess oil.
Make the wine sauce by melting the margarine in the pan, then stirring
in the wine and lemon juice. Return the chicken pieces to the pan,
spooning the wine sauce over all and cook 1 minute longer.
Serve immediately.
