flour in a shallow bowl. Dip the chicken in the flour, then the egg
mixture, then the flour again.

paper towels and keep warm. Discard the oil and add the chicken
stock to the skillet. Bring to a boil and reduce by half, making
sure to scrape up any browned bits left from the chicken. Add the
lemon juice, then the butter, whisking constantly, until it is

3. Plate the chicken breasts and pour the sauce over. Garnish with
the chopped parsley and lemon slices.
