Spread the flour in a bowl or a plate. Cover chicken pieces from both sides in flour, then dip into the egg mixture.

Return the skillet to medium heat. Melt butter and add wine and lemon juice. Simmer for a minute to reduce the sauce a little bit. Add remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and garnish with some chopped parsley.
