  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3-4 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons+ 2 tablespoons butter Land O Lakes Olive Oil and butter with sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken stock

Instructions

  • Pound chicken thin, it will cook quicker and the sauce will coat the chicken nicely.

  • Place eggs in another similar-sized dish
  • Coat each chicken breast with flour then egg then dip it into the flour again.
  • Heat skillet add 2 tablespoons butter(the Land O Lakes butter with olive oil is perfect for this as no additional oil is needed-butter alone would burn)
  • *If you use regular butter add one tablespoon of oil to each tablespoon of butter.
  • Place chicken into heated skillet, cook chicken on medium, turning chicken to ensure even cooking.
  • If you need additional butter/oil add a tablespoon at a time
  • Remove chicken from the pan, if there are bits and pieces leave them in the pan, they will add a great taste to the sauce.
  • Add 2 tablespoons butter (that same yummy butter with olive oil and sea salt)
  • Add 2 tablespoons flour
  • whisk until smooth and the flour has absorbed butter, cook for a minute so the flour doesn't have a raw taste.
  • Add wine, lemon juice, and chicken broth.
  • Cook the sauce on medium-low until it boils, continue to stir the sauce.
  • Place chicken in the sauce then turn chicken over so it's all coated well coated.
  • Serve chicken over pasta with additional sauce poured over chicken and top with grated Romano Cheese.
