While this is my mom's recipe, I had completely forgotten about it and just recently found a copy of this fantastic dish. The rich sauce and wonderful batter that goes on the chicken makes this an exquisite entree that is ideal for company.

chicken comes out tender and the sauce is delicious. My husband mopped up what was left on rolls I made with it.

This chicken is SO good! A little time consuming to make so I've only made it a couple times, but it is definitely worth it.

One of the best recipes we have made in a long time. Next time we will fry the chicken a bit longer so its crispier. Also may cut back on the lemon juice just a tad.

This is the best chicken dish I have ever made. And that was without the wine (subbed chicken broth), The only thing I would do differently is to whisk the sauce in a blender until it's smooth.

I loved the chicken with the egg and herb coating. I made the sauce with light cream instead of heavy whipping cream to make it a bit healthier and it still came out good.
