Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Slice the Mushrooms and Shallots

    Clean the cremini mushrooms and slice them thinly. Peel and finely chop the shallots.

  3. 3

    Chop the Parsley

    Finely chop the fresh parsley and set it aside for garnish.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  2. 5

    Cook the Shallots and Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the shallots and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add the sliced cremini mushrooms and cook for an additional 5 minutes until they are browned and tender.

  3. 6

    Deglaze with Marsala Wine

    Pour in the Marsala wine and stir to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.

  4. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, and add the unsalted butter. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors and the sauce to thicken slightly.

  5. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the chicken marsala before serving. Enjoy with your choice of side!
