01 - 1 1/2 lb chicken breasts (2 large), patted dry
02 - 1 tbsp olive oil for sautéing
03 - 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
04 - 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
→ Egg Mixture
05 - 2 large eggs
06 - 1 garlic clove, minced
07 - 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
08 - 1/2 tsp salt
09 - 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
→ Lemon Butter Sauce
10 - 8 tbsp unsalted butter
11 - 2 garlic cloves, minced

13 - 1/4 cup chicken broth
14 - 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
→ Garnish
15 - 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
16 - 1/2 lemon, sliced
# How-To:
01 - Cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise to create 4 cutlets. Place between plastic wrap sheets and pound with a meat mallet until evenly thick (about 1/2 inch).
02 - Whisk together eggs, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl until well combined.
03 - Combine grated Parmesan cheese and flour in a separate bowl, mixing thoroughly.
04 - Dip each cutlet into egg mixture, letting excess drip off, then dredge in Parmesan-flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere coating.
05 - Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium heat. Cook cutlets in single layer 4–5 minutes per side until golden, crispy, and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Transfer to plate.
06 - Melt butter in small saucepan over medium heat. Sauté garlic 1 minute until fragrant. Add lemon juice, chicken broth, and pepper. Simmer 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
07 - Arrange chicken on platter, spoon sauce over top, turning to coat. Garnish with lemon slices and parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
