Chicken French
- 6 each chicken breasts boneless
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 cup flour, all-purpose
- 6 large eggs whipped
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 1/2 cups sherry or white wine
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 each lemons
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon, powdered or 1 chicken bullion
- 1/2 cup water optional
- Cut the chicken into tenders (about a 1/2 wide strip) and pound them out.
- They cook quicker this way.
- A meat mallet or side of a cleaver will do this job.
- Pour the oil into a fry pan and add 1 to 2 tablespoon of butter into a large fryer and melt together.
- Med to Med High heat.
- The egg should bubble on contact.
- Dip the meat into the flour covering both sides.
- Using a fork dredge the meat through the egg wash covering both sides.
- Place chicken into the fryer and fry until golden brown on both sides.
- When brown remove from pan onto plate.
- (try not to get your hands wet as the flour becomes messy).
- Sauce: Into a pan add 1 to 1 1/2 cups of sherry (or white wine)
- Add the remaining butter and the juice of two lemon strained.
- I use two lemons cutting 2 to 3 thin slices from the center to use as garnish and the rest gets juiced through a strainer.
- Add chicken stock to this (1 tablespoon chicken stock base and 1/2 cup of water) to make it richer.
- Arrange chicken into baking dish and pour over the sauce.
- Place lemon on to top of the chicken (as a garnish) and cover with foil.
- Place into oven at 225 to 250 degrees F for 15 to 30 minutes (this is to keep it warm).
