Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 lbs chicken breast ((2 large), or chicken tenders)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour ( for dredging)
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 8 oz brown button mushrooms (halved or thickly sliced if very large)
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 3/4 cup dry marsala wine ((not sweet))

Method

  1. Slice 8 oz of brown mushrooms and set aside.
  2. Finely mince 2 large garlic cloves.
  3. Chop 2 Tbsp of fresh parsley.
  4. Cut 2 large chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make four cutlets.

  6. Season the chicken all over with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  7. Pour 1/4 cup of flour into a shallow bowl, then dip each chicken cutlet, shaking off excess flour.
  8. Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp butter.
  9. Add the floured chicken to the skillet in a single layer and sauté about 3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
  10. Remove chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  11. Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet with more oil as needed, sauté for 5 minutes until soft and golden.
  12. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp onion powder and add minced garlic, sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  13. Pour in 3/4 cup dry marsala wine and boil for 4-5 minutes until most liquid evaporates.
