Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Add more olive oil if needed. Then, sauté the shallot and garlic until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil, cooking until the sauce thickens.
  8. Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the chopped parsley and butter. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  9. Add the chicken cutlets back to the skillet, swirling them so they get coated in the sauce. Cook just to warm them through.
  10. 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.
