Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts, pounded thin
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) flour
  • 1 cup (200 g) mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) Marsala wine
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) chicken broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dredge them in flour, making sure they’re fully coated.
  • Cook the chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts until golden and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • Cook the mushrooms: In the same skillet, add butter. Sauté the sliced mushrooms until browned and softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  • Make the sauce: Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it reduce slightly for about 5 minutes.
  • Combine: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken as it cooks.
  • Serve: Plate the chicken, pouring the sauce and mushrooms over the top. Serve with mashed potatoes or pasta for a complete meal.

Notes

  • For a richer sauce, add a splash of heavy cream or more butter at the end of cooking.
  • If Marsala wine is unavailable, you can substitute with a dry sherry or white wine.
  • Serve with a simple side like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or pasta to complete the meal.
