step by step

Method

  1. Prepare the chicken

    • Butterfly the chicken breast without cutting all the way through.
    • Pound it thin and even with a mallet.
    Step 1
  2. Make the cheesy breading

    • Blend the panko until very fine and spread it on a plate.
    • Mix in the grated Parmesan and the shredded Parmesan.
    Step 2
  3. Beat the eggs

    • Beat the eggs in a bowl until smooth.
    Step 3
  4. Season and bread the chicken

    • Season the chicken on both sides with kosher salt and cracked pepper.
    • Coat it in the beaten egg on both sides and let the excess drip off.
    • Press it into the Parmesan breading on both sides, adding extra and pressing well.
    Step 4
  5. Pan-fry the chicken

    • Heat olive oil and a few pats of butter in a pan over medium heat.
    • Cook the chicken until golden and crispy, then flip and add another pat of butter.
    • Brown on the second side.
    Step 5
  6. Keep warm in the oven

    • Transfer the chicken to a dish and keep it warm in a low oven.
    Step 6
  7. Start the sauce

    • In the same pan, add the shallot and garlic.
    • Let them soften in the butter and oil.
    Step 7
  8. Deglaze with wine

    • Pour in the white wine and let it reduce until a spatula dragged through leaves a clean line.
    Step 8
  9. Finish the cream sauce

    • Add the cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
    • Off the heat, swirl in a couple of pats of butter until emulsified and thickened.
    Step 9
  10. Plate and serve

    • Spoon the sauce onto plates and top with the chicken.
    • Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
