  • Mix well until an aromatic sauce forms.

Notas

Pounding the chicken helps make it thinner and cook evenly. Coat it well in flour before the egg mixture so the seasoning sticks better. Fry over medium heat to brown without burning the butter. The lemon sauce should cook just enough to coat the chicken and enhance the flavor. Serve with white rice, mashed potatoes, vegetables or salad.
