INGREDIENTS

Chicken:

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (plain flour)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black cracked pepper
• 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally to make 4 fillets*
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

Marsala Sauce:

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter as needed
• 8 ounces (250g) brown or Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
• 3/4 cup dry Marsala wine
• 1 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth (or stock)
• 3/4 cup heavy cream (thickened cream, evaporated milk or half and half may also be used)**
• 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley

INSTRUCTIONS

• Mix the flour, salt, garlic powder and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and shake off excess.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch pan or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry 2 of the chicken breasts until golden-brown on both sides (about 3 to 4 minutes per side). Transfer to warm plate, tent with foil and keep warm. Repeat the same with the remaining 2 chicken breasts.
• In the same pan with remaining pan grease leftover from the chicken, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the mushrooms and for 2-3 minutes until browned, scraping away at any of the leftover chicken bits off the bottom of the pan.
• Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Pour in the Marsala and the broth and simmer until reduced by half and starting to thicken, (about 10-15 minutes).
• Pour in the cream and return the chicken back into the sauce. Cook until the sauce thickens (about 3 minutes). Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. (The sauce will continue to thicken off the heat.)
• Serve over cooked angel hair pasta (or pasta of choice), rice, potatoes, cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles, if desired enjoy .
