3. Beat together eggs and milk in another shallow bowl.

5. Fry chicken in oil until cooked, about 4 minutes each side. Do not crowd pan. Use multiple batches if necessary, adding oil for each batch.
6. Remove cooked chicken to a plate lined with a double layer of paper towel to absorb any left-over oil.
7. When all chicken is cooked, reduce heat to low, add chicken broth and garlic, lemon juice, scrape up any brown bits in the pan, and whisk in the reserved flour mixture.
8. Cook on low for five minutes, whisking continuously, or until mixture begins to form a gravy.
9. Remove from heat.
