Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup chopped onion
• 0.5 cup white wine
• 0.5 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix egg and milk together in a shallow bowl. Mix flour, salt, and paprika together in a second shallow bowl. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then lift up so excess egg drips back into the bowl. Press into flour mixture to coat both sides.

Step 2

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add mushrooms and onion; sauté for 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 3

Mix broth, wine, lemon juice, and cornstarch together in a medium bowl; pour over chicken and mushrooms. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
