Description

Chicken Marsala is an Italian/American classic with pan fried thinly sliced chicken breasts topped with sautéed mushrooms in a marsala wine sauce.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 2 Boneless Skinless Chicken breasts, flattened to even thickness
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 Cup Flour, for dredging
  • 2 Tbsp. Olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter

For the Marsala Sauce:

  • 1/2 Cup Marsala wine (dry or sweet, depending on your preference)
  • 1/2 Cup Chicken broth
  • 2 Cups Mushrooms, sliced (cremini or white button mushrooms work well)
  • 1 Shallot, diced
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp. Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken:
    • Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper.
    • Using a meat mallet or the flat side of a heavy skillet, gently pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch thick.
  2. Dredge the Chicken:
    • In a shallow dish, pour the flour. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper and stir.
    • Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
  3. Cook the Chicken:
    • In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat.
    • Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
    • Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate. Cover loosely with foil to keep it warm.
  4. Prepare the Marsala Sauce:
    • In the same skillet, add another Tbsp of oil and butter if needed. Add the shallot, mushrooms and garlic. SautĂ© until the mushrooms release their liquid and begin to caramelize.
  5. Deglaze the Pan:
    • Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Turn the heat down to a simmer.
    • Allow the sauce to simmer and reduce for about 10-15 minutes or until it thickens slightly.
  6. Finish the Dish:
    • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the sauce and simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes.
  7. Serve:
    • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve alongside your favorite sides.
