Ingredients

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground paprika
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
¾ cup Swanson® Unsalted Chicken Broth, divided
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ teaspoon dried dill weed

Steps:

Cut chicken breasts from one side through the middle horizontally to within one-half inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book.
Mix flour, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper together in a shallow dish. Place beaten egg in a separate shallow dish. Dip the chicken in the flour mixture and coat evenly; dip chicken in beaten egg.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in the pan; brown on each side, about 6 minutes total.
Pour 1/2 cup Swanson® Unsalted Chicken Broth and lemon juice into the skillet. Cover and simmer chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken and set aside; keep warm.
Whisk 2 tablespoons cornstarch and remaining 1/4 cup Swanson® Unsalted Chicken Broth together; add to the liquid in the pan. Increase heat to medium-high and stir frequently until sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle chicken with dill. Serve sauce with chicken.
