Chicken Marsala is a classic Italian-American dish featuring tender chicken breasts, savory mushrooms, and a rich Marsala wine sauce. It's a delicious, easy-to-make meal that’s perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. Follow this simple recipe to create a mouthwatering Chicken Marsala that’s sure to impress.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Lightly season the chicken breasts with the salt and white pepper on both sides.
- Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. You may need to do this in batches. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and browned, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat.
- Pour in the white wine, stirring constantly to deglaze the pan, making sure to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it cook for about 1 minute.
- Add the chicken broth to the skillet and stir to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer and thicken slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.
- Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes to soak up the flavors.
- Transfer the chicken breasts to a serving platter and drizzle the mushroom Marsala sauce over the top. Serve hot.
Tips:
- Flatten the chicken breasts to ensure even cooking.
- Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Choose a dry Marsala wine for a more authentic flavor.
- Don’t crowd the mushrooms in the skillet; cook them in a single layer for best results.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
There you have it—a delightful Chicken Marsala that's sure to win over your family and friends. The combination of tender chicken, flavorful mushrooms, and the rich, aromatic Marsala sauce creates an unforgettable dish. Enjoy your culinary creation, and remember that cooking is all about having fun and experimenting with flavors!
