Chicken Marsala is a delicious Italian-American dish consisting of thinly-sliced chicken breasts browned and served with a rich mushroom Marsala wine sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts boneless, skinless, pounded thin
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
- 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper or to taste
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
- 1/2 cup Marsala wine
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and dredge them in the flour.
- Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook the chicken breasts for about 5 minutes on each side until they're golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter and sliced mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are browned and tender.
- Pour the Marsala wine into the skillet to deglaze the pan, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
- Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Allow to simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Serve with pasta or mashed potatoes.
