Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup Dry Marsala wine
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess, and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate.
Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan.
Once the butter has melted, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are softened and browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Pour the Marsala wine into the pan, scraping the bottom to deglaze and release any brown bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the wine reduces slightly.
Add the chicken broth and heavy cream to the pan, stirring to combine. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the chicken breasts to the pan and spoon the sauce over the top. Allow them to heat through for about 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with pasta, mashed potatoes, or a side of steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
