* boneless, skinless chicken breasts
* 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

Procedure:

1. Flatten chicken with a mallet to get extra thin
2. Season chicken with salt and pepper
3. Dredge chicken in flour
4. Heat butter and olive oil and saute chicken approx. 3 min. each side
5. Remove chicken and add wine to browned bits in pan (3 min.)
6. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil
7. Meanwhile, whisk egg and lemon juice
8. Turn heat to LOW and add egg/lemon mixture to pan, whisking constantly for 2 min.
9. Return chicken to pan and allow to simmer in sauce for 5 min. and then serve.
