Chicken Marsala with Mushrooms
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for dredging)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
3/4 cup Marsala wine
3/4 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness.
In a shallow dish, mix flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the mixture, shaking off excess.
Cook the Chicken:
Heat olive oil and 1 tbsp of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Cook the chicken for 4–5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Mushrooms:
In the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Sauté the mushrooms for 3–4 minutes until tender.
Make the Sauce:
Deglaze the skillet with Marsala wine, scraping up any browned bits. Add chicken stock and simmer for 5–7 minutes to reduce slightly.
Combine Chicken and Sauce:
Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce and mushrooms over the top. Simmer for another 5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked.
Add Cheese:
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella or provolone over the chicken. Cover the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes until the cheese melts.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish and serve hot. Pair it with mashed potatoes, pasta, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal!
Enjoy this creamy, flavorful Chicken Marsala!
