There is an interesting AAIB report into a lighting strike on an Embraer ERJ here:

Potted version:
Looks like the hot air from the lightning discharge along the fuselage caused an EGT overtemp so the FADEC shut down the engine. An interesting report, particularly the recomendations at the back end.
