- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- All-purpose flour, for dredging
- 2 large eggs
- Juice of 1 lemon, plus lemon wedges for serving
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 sprigs sage, leaves only
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 to 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Warm Farro Salad or other grains, for serving (optional)

- Pour some flour into a shallow dish and season with salt.
- Lightly beat the eggs with the lemon juice in another shallow dish.
