Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
In a shallow dish, mix together the gluten-free flour, salt, and pepper.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the butter. Once melted, add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and tender.
Add Marsala wine to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom with a spatula. Let the wine simmer for about 2 minutes until it slightly reduces.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and the chicken to warm through.
Before serving, garnish the chicken with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the Chicken Marsala with your choice of gluten-free pasta, mashed potatoes, or a side of steamed vegetables.
