Step 1

First, lay each chicken breast flat on a cutting board, and using a knife, split it in half. Find the center of the breast on the side, poke the knife in half-way, and then hold your hand down while cutting through each breast to make two even pieces. It can also help to turn it on its side like a book, and cut it while it folds away. You will get 4 chicken cutlets from 2 whole breasts. Alternatively, buy chicken cutlets that are already thin. If you use chicken cutlets, you need 4 for this recipe.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, beat the egg. Separately, in another shallow dish, add the flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the butter and olive oil. When the butter is sizzling and foaming, the pan is hot enough to add the chicken.

Step 4

Dip each chicken breast in the egg, followed by the flour mixture. Use your fingers to press on a thick flour coating that covers every inch of the chicken breast.

Step 5

Place the chicken cutlets in the pan, and do not move them while they sear on the first side. After 5 minutes, use tongs to peak and make sure the chicken is getting golden brown.

Step 6

Flip the chicken and cook for another 4 minutes on the second side.

Step 7

After 5 minutes, pour the chicken broth, lemon zest and lemon juice into the skillet. (Add the white wine, if using). The mixture will bubble and boil. Lower the heat so that the chicken finishes cooking in the lemon sauce, about 3-4 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is 165-degrees F before serving.

Step 8

Serve two chicken cutlets over pasta (optional)
