    A lot of times, Chicken Francaise can be hard to pull off, and have it taste good. This recipe, adapted from the show Food 911 on the Food Network, is a great dish, and it's surprisingly healthy as it doesn't really use all that much oil.

    Chicken Francaise, A lot of times, Chicken Francaise can be hard to pull off, and have it taste good. This recipe, adapted from the show Food 911 on the Food Network, is a great dish, and it’s surprisingly healthy as it doesn’t really use all that much oil., Slap me thrice and hand me to my mama. This…is…amazing as all hell. And what’s so great about it for us is picky kids! I just don’t put theirs back in the pan with the sauce. Tada! A night without 3 different meals!

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Mix a Decent Amount of Salt and Pepper With the Flour to Make a Dredging Mixture. You Don't Need Any More Than a Cup of Flour; You're Just Giving Them a Light Dusting.

    2
    Done

    Using a Meat Pounder, Pound the Chicken Breasts Flat So That They Are About the Size of Your Hand.

    3
    Done

    Dredge the Chicken Breasts Through the Flour. When You Pull Them Out, Give Them a Few Good Slaps So That the Extra Flour Falls Off. You Want a Very Light Coating, This Isn't Supposed to Be Like Batter.

    4
    Done

    Crack the Two Eggs Into a Flat Bowl, Pierce the Yolks With a Fork, and Scramble Them Slightly. Combine With About a Quarter Cup of Water to Make a Light Egg Wash. It Should Be Pale Yellow in Color.

    5
    Done

    Run the Chicken Through the Egg Wash. Keep in Mind This Is a Wash, not a Bath. You Don't Want It Soaking in Egg, Just Enough to Keep It Wet and Absorb the Flour Coating.

    6
    Done

    Heat the Quarter Cup of Olive Oil in a Large Fry Pan on Medium-High Heat, and When It Is Smoking Hot, Place the Chicken Into the Pan. Cook For 1-2 Minutes on Each Side. You Will Know When It Is Ready to Flip When the Chicken Has a Nice, Slightly Browned Color and a Crisp Texture. Remove the Chicken from the Pan.

    7
    Done

    Cut Your Lemon in Half. Using One Half, Make Several Paper Thin Slices of Lemon. Save the Other Half.

    8
    Done

    Turn the Stove Up to High Heat, and Drop the Lemon Slices Into the Frying Pan. Wait For Them to Caramellize and Take on a Slightly Gummy Texture.

    9
    Done

    Pour in the 1/2 Cup of White Wine. I Recommend Yellowtail Pinto Grigio Because It's not Too Expensive, You Can Drink It With the Meal, and the Sweetness of It Counteracts the Sour of the Lemon. Let the Sauce Reduce For 30 Seconds to One Minute.

    10
    Done

    Sprinkle in Salt to Taste, and Then Add in the Cup of Chicken Broth. Allow It to Reduce Again.
