Add shallots; saute for 5 minutes, until translucent.
Add garlic and crushed red pepper to skillet and saute for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
Add chicken broth, wine and lemon juice to the skillet; use a whisk to scrape the browned bits from the bottom.

Remove skillet from oven and serve with chopped parsley and lemon slices.
