Equipment

  • Large Sauté Pan
  • Chef Knife
  • Meat mallet
  • Measuring Cups
  • Whisk
  • Kitchen tongs

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs CHICKEN BREASTS
  • 3/4 cup MARSALA WINE
  • 8 oz CREMINI MUSHROOMS
  • 1/2 cup ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
  • 1/2 cup HEAVY CREAM
  • 4 tbsp UNSALTED BUTTER
  • 2 cloves FRESH GARLIC
  • 1/2 cup CHICKEN STOCK
  • 2 tbsp FRESH PARSLEY
  • 1 tsp KOSHER SALT
  • 1/2 tsp BLACK PEPPER
  • 1 tbsp OLIVE OIL

Instructions
 

  • Place your chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap. Use a mallet to pound them until they are very thin. This helps the meat cook quickly and stay very tender.
  • Dredge the thin chicken pieces in a bowl of flour. Shake off the extra flour so the coating is very light. This creates a golden crust when you fry the meat.
  • Heat the butter and oil in your large sauté pan. Brown the chicken for three minutes on each side now. Remove the meat and set it aside on a plate.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms to the same hot pan today. Sauté them until they are brown and very soft. Add the garlic and cook for one more minute safely.
  • Pour the Marsala wine into the pan to deglaze it. Scrape the bottom to get all the tasty brown bits. Let the wine bubble until it reduces by half.
  • Stir in the chicken stock and the heavy cream now. Place the chicken back into the pan to finish cooking. Garnish with fresh parsley right before you serve the dish.

Notes

  • Pound the chicken to an even thickness every time.
  • Do not crowd the pan when browning the meat.
  • Use a dry Marsala wine for the best savory flavor.
  • Let the wine reduce for a very deep taste.
  • Use fresh mushrooms for a better and firmer texture.
  • Scrape the pan bits for a very rich sauce.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon for a bright finish.
  • Serve the chicken immediately while the sauce is hot.
