Flatten chicken breasts between
sheets of waxed paper to thickness of 3/8 inch, using meat mallet or rolling
pin. Mix cheese, breadcrumbs, minced parsley, salt and pepper in large bowl.
Whisk egg with milk in medium bowl to blend. Dip chicken into egg, then into
breadcrumb mixture, coating completely and pressing to adhere. Shake off excess
breadcrumbs. Heat oil in heavy large deep skillet to 375øF. Add chicken and
cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Using
tongs, transfer to paper towels and drain. Transfer chicken to platter. Melt
butter in small saucepan. Mix in lemon juice and pour over chicken. Garnish
with lemon wedges and parsley sprigs.
