Chicken Marsala


This is a super simple dish to prepare.
  • Boneless / skinless chicken
  • garlic salt
  • butter
  • mushrooms (I used the white mushrooms), cut into quarters
1) Season the chicken with garlic salt
2) Dredge the chicken in flour.
3) In the pan, put a little oil and brown the chicken, around 3 minutes each side. Set aside.
4) heat butter in pan, brown the mushrooms (mushrooms may produce water, if it does cook until the water is dried up)
5) when mushrooms are brown, add 3/4 cup marsala wine
6) let the marsala wine boil
7) add 1 cup chicken stock, let boil
8) put the chicken pieces back into the pan & turn the heat down to medium. Let it boil till the sauce gets reduced / thickens.
