Chicken Marsala Recipe

Chicken Marsala Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. Dredge them in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.

2. 2

   Sear the Chicken

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. When hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Mushrooms

   In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the wild mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender and browned.

4. 4

   Make the Sauce

   Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until it has reduced by half.

5. 5

   Combine Ingredients

   Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top. Allow it to cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.

6. 6

   Add Cheese and Garnish

   Sprinkle the shredded fontina cheese over the chicken and cover the skillet to let the cheese melt for about 2-3 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
