Quick Lemon Pepper Chicken

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt & lemon pepper
juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp milk
2 eggs
1/4 cup flour
4 tbsp butter

Lay the breasts down on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut them horizontally so that you will have 4 thin breasts. Season both sides generously with salt and lemon pepper.

In a shallow bowl, whisk the milk and the eggs together.

Spread the flour on a plate.

Melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium high heat in a large skillet. Add the juice of 1 lemon to the skillet.

Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour, shaking off the excess, then dip them in the egg and transfer to the skillet. Cook until golden, 2-3 minutes per side.

So quick and so good!
