Slice chicken pieces into angled strips about 1-2 inches wide.
Pound each piece so that it is at or less than 1/4 inch thickness.coat chicken in flour, then into egg bath **(only use egg bath for Chicken Frances)..

Sauce Preparation
In a small saucepan boil water and wine, bring to simmer.
Squeeze half a lemon into water.
Add chicken stock powder, salt pepper to taste
Mix cornstarch in a small mug with water till dissolved. Start adding cornstarch into liquid slowly. Add a tbsp, mix, check consistency, repeat..
Do this until the sauce has thickened but is still runny.**(For Frances, make the sauce a touch more thicker)
Alterations:
For Scampi, sautee the diced garlic, with 2- Tbsp Butter in a separate pan. At the last second, add 1 Tbsp Parmesan cheese to mix together.
For Almondine, sautee the almonds (till lightly toasted) with 3 Tbsp Buter.
