Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Chicken

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or 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 sliced mushrooms and cook until browned and tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Add the Marsala Wine

    Pour in the Marsala wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Allow the wine to simmer for about 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.

  5. 5

    Combine with Chicken Broth

    Stir in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them. Let simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Finish and Garnish

    Once the chicken is heated through, remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
