Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • kosher salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 2 (halved to make 4 fillets)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter (unsalted)

Chicken Marsala sauce recipe

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 8 oz mushrooms (sliced)
  • 6 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 3/4 cup dry marsala wine
  • 1 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 1/2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)

Instructions 

  • In a bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, garlic powder and pepper. Dredge each chicken filet in the mixture, shaking off the excess.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken breasts for about 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate.
  • While the chicken rests, melt the remaining butter in the same pan. Add in the mushrooms and brown them, then add in the garlic and saute until fragrant. Add in the Marsala wine and chicken stock and bring to a simmer until the sauce starts to thicken, about 15 minutes.
  • Once the sauce has thickened, add in the heavy whipping cream and put the chicken back into the pan. Garnish with the fresh parsley and serve immediately.
