Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and use a sharp chef's knife to slice them horizontally into two even pieces (cutlets). Transfer the cutlets, one at a time, to a ziploc bag. Using a meat hammer or a heavy rolling pin, gently pound each cutlet to a 1/4-inch thickness.
- Transfer all the pounded cutlets to a bigger ziploc bag. Add salt and pepper to taste, seal and massage to season. Then, add the flour and massage again so every piece is thoroughly coated.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Tap off the excess flour of each cutlet and place them in the skillet, cooking - turning once - until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and reserve in a plate.
- Add more olive oil if needed. Then, sauté the shallot and garlic until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the butter and, once melted, add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms release their juices and gain some color. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour in the Marsala wine, scraping all the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Cook until reduced by half, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil, cooking until the sauce thickens.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the chopped parsley and butter. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Add the chicken cutlets back to the skillet, swirling them so they get coated in the sauce. Cook just to warm them through.
- Serve immediately, with rice, mashed potatoes or buttered pasta!
Notes
- If you prefer, you can buy the chicken already cut into cutlets at the store. I still recommend pounding them thin to ensure they are all the same thickness.
- If your sauce is not thickening, mix 1 tablespoon of flour with 1/3 cup of broth and add that to the skillet. Let it boil vigorously until the sauce thickens.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container, completely cooled, for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheat in a skillet, over medium-low heat, until warmed through, adding a few splashes of broth or cream to loosen the sauce.
- Chicken Marsala tastes best when freshly made. That being said, if you must freeze it, skip adding the cream and add it once thawed and reheated, right before serving.
