Chicken Française made with lemon juice, egg, butter, and garlic. C'est magnifique!

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg , beaten
  • 1.5 medium lemons , juiced, divided
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 pinch garlic powder

  • 6 skinless , boneless chicken breast halves

    Mix together egg and 1/3 of the lemon juice in a shallow dish or bowl. Mix together flour, garlic powder, and paprika in another shallow dish or bowl. Dip chicken breasts in egg mixture, then flour mixture to coat.
