Chicken Francaise Recipe - French Lemon Butter Chicken Recipe

Chicken Francaise Recipe with step wise pictures.

This is a very unusual recipe for me. But i came across in pinterest i think. It looked so delicious that i wanted to try it immediately. Eventhough the recipe sounds unusual and complicated. It is very easy to make, a delicious pan fried chicken topped with a lemony garlic flavoured butter sauce.

I enjoyed it so much that i am gonna make it often.
