This Weekend in Hedonism (Segment 3)
- Cheryl's Recipe Corner!
- Easy Chicken Marsala
- Description
- When we go out for Italian, I have to be careful due to a nasty allergy to tomatoes. So I tend to steer away from the normal stuff. And what is better than than a wine sauce over some chicken with some tasty fungus mixed in?
- Ingredients
- 2 skinless, boneless, chicken breasts
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour or corn starch for gluten-free
- Up to 1/2 cup olive or vegetable oil
- 8 ounces container of mushroom, sliced and cleaned
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup sweet Marsala wine (OR, you can substitute 1/2 cup dry white wine and 2 teaspoons of brandy for the Marsala)
- 1/4 cup chicken stock
- 1/4 cup sherry or dry white wine
- Optional: 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- Garnish with chopped parsley or oregano
- Directions
- Split each chicken breast through the middle to make 2 pieces. Place plastic wrap over them and pound each one flat using a meat tenderizer/mallet until they are about a quarter inch thick. Season a good amount of salt and pepper on both sides of each piece. Place some flour on a plate and and dredge each piece of chicken in it. Heat the oil over medium-high heat and when the oil is hot fry each piece of chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown (this may require you to do this in 2 batches). Remove chicken and place them on your serving platter covering them with foil. carefully soak up any remaining oil with paper towels and discard. Reduce the heat to medium and add butter and mushrooms. Saute mushrooms for 4-5 minutes making sure to season them with salt and pepper lightly. Add marsala wine, sherry, cream, and chicken stock allowing the liquid to reduce slightly – approx. 3 minutes. Pour mushrooms and sauce over chicken and serve. Enjoy!
