Chicken Francese Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Chicken francese may sound like a dish straight out of italy or france. But it is, in fact, a classic american restaurant dish. This delicious chicken is coated in flour and egg and then lightly fried and finished with super-tasty lemon sauce, so easy to cook and can be on the table in under 30 minutes. The dish has translated from its restaurant origins straight into the repertoire of the home cook as it makes both a great quick, midweek supper and works so well for a special occasion too. The recipe easily scales up to double or even triple, depending on how many you are feeding.
