  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 44 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup grated Romano cheese
– 2 lemons (zested and juiced)
– 4 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Lemon Chicken Romano is a rewarding experience. Follow these steps to ensure your dish turns out perfectly:

1. Prep Chicken: Begin by pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
2. Set Up Dredging Station: In a shallow bowl, place the flour. In another bowl, whisk the eggs. In a third bowl, combine the grated Romano cheese, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
3. Dredge Chicken: Dip each chicken breast first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the Romano cheese mixture, ensuring an even coating.
4. Heat Pan: In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat until shimmering.
5. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Add Garlic: In the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic to the pan, allowing it to become fragrant but not browned.
7. Make Sauce: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and cover to keep warm. Pour in the lemon juice and simmer for 2-3 minutes to create a sauce.
8. Combine: Return the chicken to the pan, coating it with the lemon sauce.
9. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

These simple steps will lead you to create a delicious Lemon Chicken Romano that will leave everyone asking for seconds.
