Method:

1. Trim the chicken breasts and rub the salt and pepper well into them. Dust them with a teaspoon of the flour and set them aside for the moment.

2. Make a batter by gradually adding the beaten egg and water to the remaining flour. In a deep pan heat enough oil in which to fry the breasts.

3. Dip them in the batter, drain and brown on both sides in the oil (about 2 minutes). Cut each piece across into slices, arrange on a heated serving dish and garnish with the wedges of lemon.
