A classic Italian meal, this easy Chicken Marsala Recipe is loadedwithamazing flavor and is ready to enjoy in less than 30 minutes.

This Chicken Marsala recipe has got to be one of the easiest…and yummiest…recipes tomake. It’s yet another that I waited and waited to make myself for some reason. But it is what I alwaysgravitate toordering when eating at anyItalian restaurant.

Now that I have made it, I am so hooked. Big bonus is that it is so quick to make as well.

I like tocut my chicken breasts in half the long way (thinning them) and then pound them between a little plastic wrap to make them extra tender. It takes them less longer to saute too when you do this. 🙂

Serve over thin spaghetti or other pasta or choice (gluten free pasta is also wonderful). I also made some sauteed spinach withgarlic to go along with it, which is absolutely fantastic!

Start your water for your pasta when starting the chicken. The spinach takes less than10 minutes to saute with a TBP of olive oil or coconut oil.

Ingredients for Chicken Marsala

(3) Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, thinned and pounded

½ cup of All Purpose Flour

¼ – ⅓ cup coconut oil or olive oil

2 tablespoon additional coconut oil or olive oil (to saute mushrooms)

16 oz container of sliced mushrooms

1 cup of Marsala Wine

½ cup of Chicken Stock

Black Pepper

How to Make Chicken Marsala

Heat oil to on Medium high heat.

After cutting each piece of chicken in half to thin and pounding each to at least ¼ inch thickness, sprinkle with pepper. Then dredge in flour to cover.

Cook chicken for about 4 minutes on each side or under no longer pink in the middle. I had to do 2 batches for my now 6 pieces of chicken.

Remove chicken and place on a plate. Remove remaining oil from the pan that the chicken was cooked in.

Melt the 2 tablespoon of coconut oil (or butter) in the pan and add mushrooms.

Saute the mushrooms for approximately 5 – 10 minutes until they have getting tender.

Add marsala wine and chicken stock.

Cook on medium heat for about 5 -7 minutes to reduce to a thicker sauce.

Add the chicken back into the Marsala sauce.

Serve over pasta of choice.

ENJOY!!

Love this “go to” recipe. I’m not a mushroom fan so I saute onions instead and serve the chicken with garlic mashed potatoes.
